I am currently a freshman at UTM majoring in electrical engineering, cell and molecular biology, and ACS biochemistry. I am interested in all medical research, but my primary interests are age related cognitive decline and brain damage. I also enjoy educational outreach which I do with my collection of pet snakes. My goal is to become a physician scientist (MD/PhD) and have a career in both research and clinical practice.
