Biography

Hello! I'm an international student and pre-med senior concentrating in Biology on the Immunobiology track. Currently, I work in the Jamieson Lab as an undergraduate research assistant, studying the effects of S. pneumoniae coinfection on the differential expression of the Influenza A Virus transcriptome (past Summer UTRA). Additionally, I'm a TA for Foundations of Living Systems (BIOL 0200) and Principles of Immunology (BIOL 0530) and a Meiklejohn. I was also an advocate for Connect for Health. I plan on taking two gap years to do research before going to medical school. Outside of the sciences, I enjoy dancing, reading, and cooking. Feel free to reach out about classes, research, TA-ing, being pre-med, and anything else!
