I'm a third-year PhD student in CS at the University of Chicago, and an alumna of SFI REU '08. My MS is in bioinformatics, particularly species identification in metagenomic environmental samples using clustering and compositional information. I've done research in graph theory and combinatorics. I want to use this summer to reacquaint myself with complex systems, particularly complex networks and phase transitions. In my spare time, I knit, cook and do calligraphy.
