Biography
Fun fact: I don't know how to swim :(
Hello! I was raised in Houston, Texas since I was about 7 years old. As of now, I plan on concentrating on Neuroscience. I am particularly interested in this field since I find the brain fascinating as there are so many questions that are still unanswered. Moreover, I enjoy the interdisciplinary nature of the field as it integrates biology and a bit of psychology. I am excited to be part of PSP for the amazing opportunities to do research and to meet other researchers who are very accomplished in their field.
