Summary

I am a goal oriented and accomplished student with a strong passion for research and science. I had the opportunity to participate in the John Hopkins Internship in Brain Sciences, where I gained hands-on experience in neuroscience research. Through the Upward Bound Math and Science program, I developed and presented a research paper titled "Bismuth Subsalicylate Decreases Righting Time in Leptoxis dilatata at 10^-5 M", showcasing my ability to conduct scientific investigations and communicate complex findings.


Alongside my research experiences, I excelled academically, earning a 4.6 GPA in my senior year of high school while balancing four AP classes and two honors courses. Outside of academics, I demonstrated strong leadership and teamwork skills as a Cross Trainer at Shake Shack. I gained experience in training and supporting peers in a fast-paced environment.
