Biography

I did my graduate work studying the activation of the enzyme urease, which converts urea to carbon dioxide and ammonia via a nickel catalytic center.  After graduate school I spent a year as a post doc studying the role of P450's in traumatic brain injury in mice at MSU's College of Human Medicine.  Since then I've been an adjunct faculty at 17cÆð²ÝÉçÇø and at Davenport University, teaching a variety of chemistry and biochemistry related courses.  My husband and I have a son who is starting kindergarten.  As a family we enjoy spending time outdoors and around water.
