I am USF St. Petersburg: Kathleen Carvalho-Knighton

Kathleen Carvalho-Knighton was born in Brooklyn, NY, but grew up in Miami, Florida. Gifted in science, she always enjoyed studying and acquiring scientific knowledge and information.

She completed her undergraduate work at Valdosta State University in Valdosta, Georgia where she was introduced to her first research project. After completing the project, which examined the phosphate inhibition of calf intestinal alkaline phosphatase, she knew she was destined to complete a Ph.D. in Chemistry and determined to continue to conduct research in chemistry.
