Career and Academic Interests

I am interested in genetics, biochemistry, and molecular biology. I am applying to graduate schools this semester, and eventually hoping to get my Ph.D in Molecular Biology/Biochemistry.

Favorite Aspect of Biology

• I enjoy how biology explains how life works and all of its processes. It challenges us, as rational human beings, to take a step back and realize our place in the world.

Favorite Aspect of Computer Science

• I appreciate that computer science allows for information to be stored, organized more efficiently and more accessible for people.

Work Experience

• Organic Chemistry Lab Teacher's Assistant (August 2019-Present)
  • Employer: LMU Chemistry Department/Robert Senter
  • Facilitating lab and ensuring students’ safety as well as grading their lab reports and quizzes
• Precalculus Teacher's Grader (August 2018- December 2018)
  • Employer: LMU Mathematics Department/Fereidoun Jahani
  • Responsible for grading student assignments and providing assistance to incorrect solutions

Interests and Hobbies

• In my free time, I enjoy spending time with friends, watching the sunset, reading, and watching movies. I also enjoy to workout when I can as it contributes to my overall health.
