About Me

I’m a PhD student in neurobiology at Purdue University, with prior studies at institutions like the University of Chicago and the University of Southern California.

My passion lies in uncovering the molecular mechanisms that drive depression, and I explore these pathways through genetic analysis.

I [obviously] have a deep love for reading and writing. Gender studies courses I took as an undergrad profoundly reshaped the way I view literature—showing me how it can be a tool for empowerment. Literature gives women a voice, and I fully intend for mine to be heard.

My Educational Background!

IU Bloomington

Undergrad
I graduated from IU Bloomington in 2022 with a B.S. in Neuroscience and Clinical Psychology.
University of Southern California

Graduate School
In 2023, I moved to L.A. to pursue my M.S. in Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine. There I was a Cardinal Scholar in the Keck School of Medicine. FIGHT ON!
The University of Chicago

Graduate School
Upon graduating from USC, I pursued a second M.S. in Biomedical Informatics. I wanted to get a stronger background in Data Analysis, and UofC was the perfect fit.
I am currently a PhD student studying Neurobiology at Purdue University.
