Bio

I am aspiring to attend medical school and train as a neurosurgeon. I have graduated from Edmonds College with an Associate of Science. I am now pursuing my bachelor's in biochemistry and physiology at Seattle Pacific University. I have completed multiple undergraduate research projects in biology, chemistry, and microbiology. I have presented my research at the UW undergraduate research symposium and Edmonds College undergraduate research symposium. I love volunteering at the local hospital which allows me time with patients and learning about the medical industry. In my free time, I enjoy reading, playing video games, and puzzling.
