Coming from Denison, Texas, I am a freshman at Oklahoma State University studying Biology with a Pre-Medical concentration. After finishing my undergraduate education at Oklahoma State University, I plan to attend medical school. I am involved in the College of Arts and Sciences Freshman Student Council, the American Medical Student Association, and the Oklahoma Louis-Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation. I enjoy spending my free time volunteering. As a first-year student, I am beyond excited to begin my research experience with Dr. Kirchberger as well as using what I learn in the lab to advance my future career in medicine.
