Hometown:

Woodland, CA

Education:

How I work With Students:

I started my undergraduate career in the midst of the pandemic. As a result, counselors and advising was often hard to get ahold of at a community college. I learned how to navigate the maze of requirements and deadlines and wish to help other students navigate these. Having done research as an undergraduate, I realize the opportunity research offers to students, and strongly advocate for students to pursue various routes of inquiry.

Fun Facts About Me:

I have a pet leopard gecko named "Turtle"
