Reading the body
through the mouth.

I'm a Psychology & Brain Sciences student at Georgia Tech on the pre-dental track. At Emory Winship Cancer Institute I study pancreatic cancer genomics and salivary microRNA biomarkers for early cancer detection. I've also spent five years chairside in dental and oral surgery practices.
