Check out our preprint now out on ChemRxiv!
Together with Neyci we developed a Ti/Ni dual-catalytic approach to access branched cross-coupled products from 2-alkyl aziridines.

Our perspective on Multimetallic-Catalyzed C–C Bond-Forming Reactions (written in collaboration with Prof. Laura Ackerman-Biegasiewicz and Stavros Kariofillis) is now online! Check it out for a real tour-de-force! doi.org/10.1021/jacs.2…
This fall I will join the faculty Rice University as an Asst. Professor of Chemistry. I am immensely grateful for the support of so many, humbled to be in the company of such remarkable colleagues, and elated to begin my independent scientific career! Rice Chemistry
I'm excited to (finally) announce that this week I'll be starting aplab.ucsd.edu and joining UCSD Chem Biochem UC San Diego as an assistant professor!
Thanks to all of my countless mentors, friends, and colleagues who made this possible
Having this amazing mentor to Izzy meant she found a role model to inspire her to achieve her dreams 💭 What does mentorship mean to you? #WomenInSTEM
