About Me

My husband and I are from San Francisco, CA. We have a 7-year-old together and I’m a stepmom to his 15-year-old. We moved to Providence, RI five years ago so I could pursue my dream job of running a neuroscience research laboratory at Brown University. The most difficult part of the move has been being far away from my teenaged stepchild who lives in the East Bay. We would love to take the opportunity that my upcoming sabbatical offers to temporarily move our family to the East Bay to be close to them once again.
