Areas of Special Interest
I'm a 19-year-old from Cleveland, Ohio, currently a rising senior at Alabama A&M University majoring in biology. My passion lies in both medicine and research. My ultimate goal is to become a physician who advocates for equal access to healthcare through clinically translatable research. I am currently researching mechanotransduction in the HeLa cell line under high and low shear fluid force conditions, aiming to translate findings into clinical applications. Outside of academics, I enjoy track and field and am an avid reader.
