Scholar Description

I graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry and a Certificate in Honors Interdisciplinary Arts in May of 2024. I am working in Dr. Ranjana Poddar’s lab whose research is centered around hyperhomocysteinemia in relation to stroke. I plan to pursue a PhD in Neuroscience with a focus on neurogenerative diseases. In my free time, I enjoy spending time outdoors including hiking and camping. I also play sand volleyball and indoor soccer.
