Crystal is a graduate student in Biological and Biomedical Sciences at Harvard Medical School and officially started biking to the Kwon Lab in September 2012. Prior to moving to Boston, she experimented at the Benaroya Research Institute in her hometown of Seattle and coached swim team in the off hours. She received her BS from University of Washington, where she studied biology, with a side of chemistry and a generous helping of varsity swimming. In addition to her continued tendencies toward water, Crystal almost never sits down and can conjure restaurant recommendations at will.
