Biographical Sketch:
I have a long-standing interest in immunology and its applications for gynecologic cancer therapy. My PhD thesis focused on therapeutic vaccination for cervical cancer. I am currently a Women's Reproductive Health Research Scholar (K12) at the University of Washington and I am additionally supported by the Marsha Rivkin Center for Ovarian Research to study immune therapies for ovarian cancer.
