I will never forget my time playing weekly volleyball with not just my peers but also my professors, doing a 6-month internship at Johnson & Johnson, and spending far too much of my free time in research developing tissue-engineered intervertebral discs.

I am a Rawlings Scholar, which is a research distinction at my school, and have been on the Dean’s List in all my semesters studying for my double major in Biomedical Engineering and Computer Science.

I plan to become a Biomedical Engineer in the entrepreneurship side of Healthcare Technology.

I am the most proud of the connections I’ve made thus far. I value every one of my friendships and every one of my professional connections, for each of them constantly challenge and inspire me to be a better version of myself.
