About
I spent a majority of my undergraduate studies attending Tallahassee State College (TSC) under the major of Biochemistry. I wanted to complete as many of my pre-requisite classes as possible at TSC before moving to Florida State University (FSU). At this time I have completed one semester at FSU.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
My final goal is to become a research professor in the field of biomaterials. To get there, I am getting my bachelor's degree in biochemistry with an accent on mathematics and physics. Once I have the bachelors degree, I plan to participate in research, putting the experience towards a doctoral degree, while pursuing the path of an educator. Once my research is secure enough to complete and defend a dissertation, I will finish the steps towards my doctorate and become a professor in the field of biochemistry.
- Graduate school interests
Bio-mass/Bio-materials research.
Education
Business- Outside the classroom
I have two different kinds of hobbies, permanent/primary hobbies, and temporary/secondary hobbies.
Permanent hobbies, as the name states, are a part of my very being and will never leave my life such as music (both performance and listening), preparation, BMX (Bicycle Motocross), DnD (Dungeons & Dragons), vehicle maintenance, terrarium building, videogames, exercise, cooking, and relaxing in nature.
Temporary hobbies, as the name suggests, are activities that find themselves in the limbo of interest. Occasionally, these hobbies find their way into the permanent category, but oftentimes these hobbies are dropped once I have adequately learned the associated skill or have finished a creation within the topic. My current temporary hobbies are woodworking/carpentry, carving, and electronics repair.
