About

I am studying for my Bachelors of Arts in Chemistry at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis. I have thoroughly enjoyed being a part of my academic community having been given the opportunity to be a peer leader and mentor, participate in work-study programs on campus, and hold lab positions that provide me with a hands-on experience! Although I hope to pursue a career as an Organic Chemist or Toxicologist, I am currently involved in launching a Covid-Testing lab in the IU School of Medicine on campus. I work as a lab assistant alongside an incredible team where we innovate and strive for change on a daily basis. I am enamored with the world of Academia and have had an incredible experience during my time on campus.
