I am currently pursing a Bachelors of Science in Animal Science with a minor in Wildlife and Fisheries as well as a Bachelors of Education in Deaf Studies with an anticipated graduation of December 2025. Post graduation I want to pursue a masters degree, ideally researching how human influence impacts the physiology and behavior of large cats in their natural habitat. I joined the Amphibian Disease Lab in Fall 2024 and look forward to expanding my knowledge in research.
