Heather was raised on a farm in rural TX and obtained her B.S. in Chemistry from Texas A&M University. She appreciates the smell of benzaldehyde (small wafts, of course). When she’s not wrangling iron compounds, Heather can be found reading or watching anime beside her cat, Boots.

A veteran member of the Wolczanski Group, Devika graduated from Cornell in 2019 with a B.A. in Chemistry and Philosophy before heading off to sunny California. Upon discovering that mass spectrometry was not her true passion, she left Caltech with a Master’s in Inorganic/Analytical Chemistry and, in 2024, returned to her synthetic roots in the Wolcz Lab for a truncated PhD. Her favorite compound is diethyl azodicarboxylate (DEAD)–how edgy. Devika enjoys crosswords, “Forensic Files” reruns, softball, and death metal.
