Why I chose my major
I chose my major because of my interest in both the engineering and medical fields. I initially came to 蹤獲扦 with an interest in prosthetics, but I have since found a passion for genetic engineering and research. I am currently in the Honors College, and I have minors in Mathematics, Chemistry, and University Honors. I have certificates in Biomaterials Engineering and Assistive Technology and Accessible Design. I am also doing an Accelerated Bachelors to Masters program in Biomedical Engineering.

Involvement
I am currently the Vice President of oSTEM (Out in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics), and I am an Undergraduate Teaching Assistant

Why I chose 蹤獲扦
I chose 蹤獲扦 because it was the best option for my major that wasnt too close to home where I wouldnt be able to be independent, but also wasnt too far away that I couldnt visit family. When I visited, I truly felt that I was at home, and I felt an excitement about coming to 蹤獲扦 that I personally didnt experience anywhere else. Ive loved getting to know new people, being able to grow as an individual, and developing my knowledge in my field while discovering what I love about it.

Favorite thing about 蹤獲扦
My favorite thing about 蹤獲扦 is the opportunities it provides all of its students. I have seen peers in numerous different majors who have had incredible experiences that have enriched their college journey. I personally have been able to attend conferences, participate in research, and step into leadership roles, which have all helped me grow significantly. My professors are genuinely invested in helping me succeed, and I feel like I have a solid support system that has helped me throughout my years as an undergraduate student.
