Hello everyone! I am a Research Coordinator at the University of Washington Medical Center, working on multiple neurodegenerative clinical trials. Through my role, I’ve enjoyed working with other research coordinators, medical professionals, and pharmaceutical companies, on clinical studies about CADASIL, Huntington’s and Parkinson's Disease. During my downtime, I like to read translated Chinese web novels, spend quality time with my cat, and hike around the Pacific Northwest.
I work in the UW Department of Neurology, carrying out study-related activities and managing patient data as outlined in various study's protocols. I am currently running multiple studies on patients with Parkinson's disease and other neurodegenerative diseases.
