I’m a PhD-trained human geneticist and medical writer and editor with a passion for uncovering the genetic and biological foundations of common diseases—and clearly communicating those insights to diverse audiences.

With over a decade of experience in genetics research, I specialize in variant analysis and early drug target discovery using large-scale population genetics datasets. As a former NIH K99/R00 awardee and author of 60+ peer-reviewed publications, I have led projects from concept to publication, blending analytical rigor with a strategic vision for translational impact.

Alongside my research career, I’ve worked as a freelance academic editor for more than 10 years, helping non-native English-speaking scientists refine and elevate their manuscripts for top-tier journals. I’m committed to scientific clarity and have extensive experience in manuscript editing, grant writing, peer review, and journal editorial leadership.

Whether I’m translating data into discoveries or complex science into accessible language, I thrive at the intersection of research and written communication.
