Fun Facts

I am originally from Colorado but have spent a couple years in Lubbock for my undergrad! I love to swim and I have a small crochet stuffed-animals business.

About Me

As of May 2022, I am a PhD student at TCU pursuing research in the Neurobiology of Aging Lab. While my undergraduate degree was in Microbiology, a majority of my undergraduate research focused on wildlife disease and genetics.

Experience

During high school I took several AP courses (Chem, Bio, Physics 1/2, Environmental Science, Calc AB) and during my undergraduate degree I led study groups with friends in the class to prepare for exams.

Approach

Growing up, my parents were very insistent on building strong study skills and dedicating time to find the best method of understanding. In college, education changed from simply memorizing facts to needing to comprehend the material by stitching it together into logical connections to succeed in exams. Having this in mind, I believe that each person studies and learns differently, so multiple approaches might need to be taken in order to have this well-rounded understanding of the material.
