Curriculum vitae

Raised in the northern part of Michigan's lower penninsula, I obtained Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry at Michigan State University in East Lansing, MI. Subsequently, I earned a Master of Science degree in Organic Chemistry from the University of Illinois at Chicago, under the supervision of Prof. Robert Moriarty, focussing on the use of carbohydrates as chiral synthons. During my time in Chicago, I met Prof. Michael Sinnott and subsequently relocated to the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology (UMIST), where I completed a Ph.D. thesis on the kinetic characterisation of a GH27 alpha-galactosidase from the white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium (external examiner Dr. Bernard Henrissat. After a short post-doctoral stint with Prof. Steve Withers in the Department of Chemistry at the University of British Columbia working on glycosidase ligand synthesis and glycosidase active site identification by protein mass spectrometry, I moved to the School of Biotechnology at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) to accept a junior faculty position, later earning promotion to Associate Professor (Docent). I am presently a Fellow of the Swedish Research Council (VR Rådsforskare).
