Abstract: 

My Ph.D. research has encompassed areas in synthetic organic chemistry and chemical biology including the development of multifunctional linkers for an application in expansion microscopy, anti-Markovnikov hydroselenation of olefins, enantioselective pyrazole alkylation via N–H insertion, and intramolecular hydroamination to access scaffolds with bioisostere potential. Collectively, these studies have enabled the design of functional molecules and the development of novel transformations.
