Scholar Description

I am currently working in a Cell Biology & Physiology training program under Dr. Nikki L Jernigan, where I am gaining invaluable experiences. My ultimate goal is to pursue an MD/PhD, driven by my passion for interdisciplinary research that bridges physiology, molecular biology, and cardiovascular medicine. Outside of school and work, I enjoy exercising, hiking, reading books, traveling, listening to music, and spending as much time with my family and friends as possible.
