I am currently a sophomore student at Texas A&M University and am working towards a Bachelor of Science in Biology. With a growing enthusiasm for academic progression and campus involvement, I am actively trying to further immerse myself into the Aggie community. I am eager to be more involved in the STEM community, and am seeking opportunities to engage in extracurricular activities and contribute to the university's already rich history. As I navigate through my years at Texas A&M University, I am looking forward to embracing new challenges, forging meaningful connections and making a lasting impact both inside and outside of the classroom.
