Summary

I am a current Biochemistry & Molecular Biology major at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. I work as a host in the dining room of a retirement home with independent and assisted living residents.

Nothing interests me more than finding out how things works: technology, the human body, the human mind, the effects of the mind on the body, the body and mind of other animals, machinery, etc. I have been looking for the opportunity for a hands on experience to both learn and work. If I am fortunate enough to gain that experience, i know i would be a great asset.
