Goals and interests
- Career goal
To learn the exact processes that occur whenever you ingest or introduce any given nutritional element into your body. To earn a PhD and to bring the most nutrition education to the masses through inspiration and research, study and discovery. To use television and film as a medium to lower the statistics of the most prevalent causes of death in our country being diet related. To further the study of a relationship between emotional illness and nutrition and to develop a diet for PTSD. To help veterans with PTSD along the way.
- Graduate school interests
I would like to stay at the University of Arizona and enrich it's research profile. I would like to do my best to distinguish myself among it's students and to aid others in their research as well as begin narrowing down and finding the funding for my own.
- Outside the classroom
My hobbies are dancing, singing, indie film making, screenwriting, theater, baking, helping others and organic (as much as possible) gardening.
