Biography
After receiving my bachelor’s degree in chemistry and biochemistry at Virginia Tech, I joined the Enzyme Institute in the Biochemistry Department at the University of Wisconsin-Madison as a doctoral student. In the laboratory of Perry Frey I studied enzymology and specialized in spectroscopy and radical cofactor chemistry. After receiving my degree, I did a postdoctoral fellowship with Vern Schramm at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine where I investigated the transition states of ribosyl transfer enzymes by solving multiple kinetic isotope effects. I then did a second postdoctoral fellowship at Pfizer-San Diego where I studied protein oxidation and its effect on irreversible inhibition kinetics.
