I am a first-year MCB student rotating in the Bedford Lab. I am generally
interested in evolutionary biology, genomics, and bioinformatics. My interests
in these fields developed while studying genetic algorithms during a master's
program for computer science at Western Washington University (WWU). This
research motivated me to return to school to study evolution where I explored
prezygotic reproductive isolation between species in the apple maggot species
group (*Rhagoletis*). During my master's in biology at WWU, I had the
opportunity to join Evan Eichler's lab in University of Washington's Genome
Sciences as a bioinformatics specialist where I studied structural variation and
genome assembly in primates.

Move John to "alumni" (hopefully not for long).
