MY PERSONAL INTERESTS
I double major in Biology and English and minor in chemistry. Although it is a minor, I am passionate about chemistry and specifically, organic and biochemistry. I have a wide range of research interests including, planetary science, microbial ecology, biotechnology, ecology, conservation, literature and scientific writing and scientific communication. My graduate school focus is in plant biology/Botany.
I am also an artist and incorporate science when I can and when it will convey science in a fun, artistic engaging manner. My artistry expands from painting, music producing, performance art and enabling other artists. My English degree focus is in bibliotherapy and creative writing. I recently produced a film using bibliotherapy and creative writing and presented it at the 2021 Macksey Symposium.
I am also a peer mentor for first year students in STEM. I believe mentorship and mentoring are incredibly needed programs for students. Through mentoring, support, guidance and direction can help us build stronger communities and aid our progression within our careers and personal lives.
I want to contribute all that I have mentioned and especially, help build the future generations of people of color within STEM.
