I am a third-year medical student at VCOM Virginia. I first joined Dr. Roballo’s lab as a OMS2 to explore my interests in neurology. The goal of my research is to study the anatomical differences between male and female peripheral nerves. After understanding the fascicular anatomy of a nerve and its morphology, I hope to develop a method that will best determine how to best match nerve morphologies between a donor and recipient for transplantation following a peripheral nerve injury. Outside of research, I enjoy hiking and traveling.

I am a second-year (OMS-II) VCOM student in Dr. Roballo's lab. I have a strong interest in neurology and my research interests are in neurodegenerative diseases and regenerative medicine. My current research is in peripheral nerve damage and I am studying the effects of neuronal cell priming on endothelial extracellular vesicle uptake and protein transport. The ultimate goal of this project is to investigate potential therapeutic advancements for peripheral nerve transplant and regeneration.
