First-Year Counselor (FroCo)

Josh is from College Park, MD, studying Molecular Biophysics and Biochemistry on the pre-med track. He does research in the Simon Lab, where he focuses on understanding gene regulation through the study of histone epigenetic mechanisms. Outside of the classroom, Josh enjoys racing for the ski team, volunteering at Yale-New Haven Hospital and Yale Community Kitchen, playing IM sports, and finding ping pong matches in the Buttery. He also enjoys serving as one of Morse College’s chief aides. Josh can most reliably be spotted with a nutella latte at Koffee or sampling the flavor of the week at Elena’s on Orange.
