I am molecular biologist who has spent most of my career leveraging technical expertise across disciplines to produce sound policy recommendations. At the Centre for Long Term Resilience I am working to influence policy to mitigate extreme biological risks. Prior to CLTR I've worked with the US Department of Defense and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on programs to counter weapons of mass destruction, global health security, and pandemic preparedness.
