I’m a freshman at the University of Pittsburgh. For the last two years, I’ve experimented with different research interests, like molecular biology and immunology, before settling on computational biology as my major. I’m passionate about science journalism and spreading STEM education in my community. Other than that, I’m usually cooking (and snacking) or finding new hiking spots or beaches in California!
