About

Hey there! Welcome to my LinkedIn profile! I am a junior majoring in Biological Sciences at Grambling State University with a growing interest in immunology, biotechnology, and biomedical research. My experiences in the lab and in leadership roles have strengthened my adaptability, problem-solving, and communication skills, all of which are useful both in research and medicine. I am fascinated by the complexity of the human body, and aim to apply science toward improving healthcare, particularly in rural and underserved communities, whether through research, medicine or both.
