About
Currently pursuing a Kinesiology degree at UNLV with a 3.82 GPA, I have consistently been a part of the Dean's Honor List each semester and received recognition for academic achievement within the Athletic Training program. My commitment to research led to a valuable internship focused on studying the correlation between gut microbiome and lifetime socioeconomic factors. Going forward, I am exploring a future in Biomedical Research, intrigued by the profound potential to advance health science knowledge and improve lives. Always eager to learn, I am open to opportunities that will propel me further towards this path.
