I am a second-year PhD student in the mathematics department at the University of Texas at Arlington. I received my B.S. in Mathematics from Colorado State University in December of 2023.
I am a member of the NSF Research Training Group (RTG): Vertically Integrated Interdisciplinary Training in Mathematics for Human Health program. As such, my research interest is in mathematical modeling of biological systems. Particularly, I am interested in modeling cancer and its effect on diabetes. Type II diabetes increases the risk of cancer, but if and how cancer affects the risk of type II diabetes is unknown. Using "Fitbit data" (i.e. data collected on personal devices such as sleep patterns, heart rate, glucose levels, etc.), we hope to identify and predict the risk of diabetes in cancer patients.
