My Work
Research.
A large chunk of my time in college was spent engaging in research. Through my network, I got connected with Anna Savage, Ph.D., and began a project on root trait genomics in the common bean. After completing applications to the National Science Foundation's Research Experience for Undergraduates (NSF REU), I became a summer research intern at Cornell University (2017) and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (2018). These experiences exposed me to the wonders of research and continue to develop me as a scientist.
