Research and Special Interests:
I am a motivated synthetic organic chemist currently looking for a research position within a multidisciplinary environment. Proven ability to work within a team and willing to learn a new concepts and experimental techniques.
I am currently a Postdoctoral Fellowship with Dr. Hang (Hubert) Yin at the University of Colorado Boulder. I conducted my Ph.D. studies at the University of Utah under Professor Gary E. Keck and have B.S. in Chemistry from Colorado State University (Fort Collins) where I worked under the late Professor A.I. Meyers.
I have experience in asymmetric synthesis and methodology development. I also have experience as a medicinal chemist making small heterocyclic molecules in both an academic and industrial setting.
An extensive teaching background has provided me with several managerial opportunities as well as strong, flexible communication skills. I am currently directly supervising two undergraduates and a visiting graduate student as part of my postdoctoral responsibility.
