7 years ago I am a Human Physiology Major at the University of Oregon, minoring in chemistry. I am undertaking the pre-med track with my main focus being research and surgery. I am a general chemistry and biology tutor and love finding new ways to teach incoming freshman about chemistry and general sciences. My hobbies are volunteering at hospitals, volleyball, basketball, and hanging out with the boys. I work in a Neurophysiology lab on campus where I conduct experiments on mice to explore the neural pathways associated with auditory cognition. Through this lab I was able to explore my passion for surgery by being able to perform surgeries on mice as well as learning the anatomy and physiology behind these medical practices.
From a very young age, inspired by my Father, I wanted to become a physican. I am dedicated to helping people and advancing medicine for the advancement of the human race. I want to make a long-lasting impact on the medical community through innovation and research. The UIF program has allowed me to be able to connect with members of the science community here on campus and encourage communication and collaboration through mutual interests.
