Chloe is from rural Vermont. She has a BS in medical biology, and an MS in microbiology and structural biology. Her thesis at UVM focused on characterizing a protease required for spore germination in Clostridium difficile. After graduate school she worked in fMRI data analysis at Washington University in St. Louis. While there, she got pulled into an application for a program project because her boss and his research administrator were desperate, and discovered she loved grants. She left the bench in favor of the desk and has been on the administrative side of research since 2017.
Chloe worked as a research administrator in the microbiology department at Tufts beginning in 2021 until joining the Lyme Disease Initiative, where she serves as a research administrator and program manager for the PROSSECO project and in other capacities as needed.
Chloe lives in Medford with her husband and two kids, and in her spare time loves gardening and hiking with her family (and then meticulously checking for ticks).
