Varsha is originally from Portland, OR and has recently moved back after completing her undergraduate education at Johns Hopkins University, where she earned a B.S. in Neuroscience in May 2025. During college, she gained research experience in the Mumm Lab studying novel approaches to nerve regeneration and drug delivery, while also working with the Johns Hopkins Center for Educational Outreach as a Head Mentor supporting Baltimore City middle school students in STEM education and Science Olympiad preparation.

Outside of work, Varsha enjoys dancing and baking, and is excited to be back in Portland.
