Extracurriculars: I have been a part of Faculty-Sponsored Research with Professor Rainer since my sophomore year! I have also been a lab assistant for the 100-level biology courses for the last three years. I currently tutor at the LRN in Microbiology and Anatomy. I am also involved in FTK at Arcadia!

What do you like to do in your free time? I love going to concerts, baking, jewelry making, collecting records and CDs, and talking through movies with my roommates!

Post-grad plans: Alongside my classes at Arcadia I have been taking an EMT course and after graduation I plan on working as an EMT before I begin to apply to Physicians Assistants programs. I hope to be able to travel abroad at least once before then. I am also aiming to get my first publication within a year of graduation!
