Lucy is a third-year Ph.D. candidate advised by Prof. Brandon Barnett at the University of Rochester. She grew up in Issaquah, Washington and received her undergraduate degrees in chemistry and mathematics from Oregon State University in 2019. She worked as a staff chemist at Inpria, a JSR Company, before coming to UR. Her current work focuses on developing “molecular zeolites” and understanding the types of reactivity a rigid and narrow void can provide high-valent metal centers. She also serves as secretary of the Rochester Younger Chemists Committee and is active within the UR DEIO committee. Outside of the lab, Lucy enjoys baking, watching TV, and napping whenever possible.
