A recent graduate of the University of Washington’s Bioengineering program, Cameron is passionate about protein design, genetics, and using the design process to meet the needs of a population. Using his design skills, one of Cameron’s design projects included participating in an interdisciplinary capstone project with HuskyADAPT, which helped to create a head-controlled device to facilitate collaborative play between a 2-year old with cerebral palsy and her older sister. In the Pathogen Detection Lab, Cameron’s responsibilities include specimen processing, lab maintenance, troubleshooting issues with samples, and assisting with lab projects. In his personal time, Cameron enjoys adventuring through the outdoors using a variety of means of movement, including skiing, trail running, and thru hiking. For his next outdoor project, Cameron will be training for a 50 mile trail race near Mt. Hood during the summer of 2023.
