I’m originally from New York and graduated from Haverford College with a B.S. in Chemistry. Currently, I’m a PhD student at Rice University where I work to develop novel peptide-based biomaterials for drug delivery and vaccine applications. I did my Fulbright in Lund, Sweden, where I studied peptide and protein self-assembly. Outside of science, I love to backpack, skydive, read, and explore Houston on my bike.

On Houston:
I love the food and diverse community!

On Fulbright:
I love the ability to build international friendships and research connections. The Rice Fulbright community is especially amazing and an important part of my life here on campus!

Fun fact about Brett:
I am a certified skydiver!
