Summary

I am currently a diligent Student at UNC Chapel Hill, passionate about my education in biology. I find myself driven to attend a veterinary graduate school and to one day to work in a vet clinic. In Chapel Hill, I am currently involved in a research lab working to identify molecular networks essential for early heart development in relation to heart disease. Additionally, I like to involve myself on campus through extracurricular activities such as being the social chair for TriBeta, the UNC Biology Honor Society. I am a passionate, determined and hardworking person.
