I am a third-year Biobehavioral Health major with a minor in Bioethics, passionate about health equity, government policy, and community/public health. My research experience spans health disparities, environmental health, and epidemiology. In summer 2023, I conducted soil analysis research in Gippsland, Australia, at Monash University, and I have also explored the impact of social determinants on pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor outcomes.

With a strong foundation in data analysis, interdisciplinary collaboration, and public health research, I am eager to apply my skills to projects that address population health challenges. My ability to synthesize complex data, think critically, and adapt to diverse research environments allows me to contribute meaningfully to any team.
