Research focus and accomplishments

During my last semester as an undergraduate, I interned with a local health department. Through this experience, I was able to assist with a COVID-19 response project that included developing a survey to distribute with other materials across the county.

After graduating, I worked for a year as a lab technician for the LungMAP Biorepository at the University of Rochester Medical Center. In this position, I assisted with all of the processing of donations/specimens and management of inventory.

These experiences developed my interest to work in public health and to support projects and research that contribute to helping all individuals and communities live healthy lives.
