More about Bonnie

I am outgoing and personable. I love helping people, including others and organize lab get togethers. I am diligent and dedicated when it comes to work but I like to have fun too! Things I love besides research include interior decorating to incorporate different design styles, playing classical piano and experimenting with baking breads and sweets. I was born in Taiwan and is a US citizen. I would love to hear from you!
