Profile/About Me

I received my Ph.D. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology in 2011 from Clemson University. After completing that degree I pursued a Masters of Public Health, due to an interest in global health, from the University of Virginia and completed that degree in 2012. After completion of my MPH, I returned to the upstate of South Carolina and have been teaching at North Greenville University prior to returning to Clemson as a Lecturer.
