I’m currently an undergraduate student majoring in Biology and minoring in neuroscience. I plan on attending MD/PhD school after undergrad, in the hopes of becoming a physician scientist. I want to be able to use my own research in the future to not only save people's lives, but also find more ways to better lives and expand global healthspan. I currently have a research internship in which I spend multiple hours a week researching coronary artery development. I has helped to further my career goals, and teaches me to manage my time efficiently so I can both prioritize my academic and athletic goals. I also have a lot of passions outside of running and academics. These include outdoor activities like hiking, fishing, archery, and mushroom picking. I also really enjoy reading, writing, painting/drawing, and jewelry making.
