I hold a bachelor’s in psychology and communication with a minor and several certificates from UIUC, a master’s in counseling for mental health and wellness from NYU, and a certificate in human rights from Columbia University. I have previously held a policy fellowship and been a graduate intern for the International Council of Psychologists to the United Nations. I aspire to do research in neuroscience in addition to attending medical school and continuing to advocate for the sciences and in favor of disability rights. In my spare time, I volunteer for March for Science and I compose literature reviews about health science-related topics that pique my curiosity.
