Made up of mostly freshmen, it can be difficult to adjust to college life and the extracurriculars. With the added stressor of research, a process that most freshmen are unfamiliar with, it can be difficult to manage time and efficiently complete work. Acting as a mentor/facilitator and guide, I hope to make the UROP process easy and comprehensible! |

We believe this research will help future teachers and education grow. | I am looking into Cancer Research and Diabetes Research. | How has UROP impacted your time at FSU? | UROP is really a special program in which it connects students with research happening here at Florida State University. I was looking for research, and I did not know where to start or who to even ask. Having UROP really helped me find so many professors and research projects that I had no clue existed. During my time in UROP, I found so many new friends and peers that are all so passionate about research. UROP taught me how to speak and communicate in a professional sense. The program opened my eyes to new topics and research fields I didn't know I was interested in. The most important thing UROP gave me was my research mentor. My mentor has become a great friend in which I can have support from and guidance. I am so glad that I applied to UROP. | Involvements: Medical Response Unit at FSU, UROP Leader, Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) Hobbies: Reading and Movies, gym, Dancing and Singing, and going to National Parks.

Firstly, it has opened doors for me that I never knew were available. I was unaware that research was even a possibility for me. I have made genuine connections with mentors. Additionally, it has made me a highly competitive candidate for other research opportunities and possible jobs.

I work as a research assistant in the Sang Lab's project investigating the use of CRISPR to correct SMARCB1 mutations in ATRT, a form of rare childhood brain cancer. As CRISPR carries risks of off-target effects when taking the NHEJ pathway, we are looking for ways to increase the percentage of the HDR pathway to make CRISPR a more viable treatment option. | Previously, I worked as a research assistant on the Hickner Lab's R01 project investigating the impact of resistance training on pre-diabetes and metabolic flexibility. | How has UROP impacted your time at FSU? | UROP has impacted my time as FSU by being my bridge into the research community. I joined UROP as a freshman with no research experience, so being able to begin my research journey the moment I set foot on campus with guidance and assistance from the program was very beneficial. UROP has helped me find a research lab doing impactful work on a topic very important to me that I truly love. Additionally, being able to amass research experience so quickly in my undergraduate career has helped me to achieve other research opportunities, such as my internship at the AdventHealth Translational Research Institute in summer 2025.

I haven't gotten a chance to be a part of criminology research, so if I were to participate it would be that. | Previously I participated in research that involves digital media art. I mainly collected data for artists' open-call opportunities nationally. | How has UROP impacted your time at FSU? | I was a freshman when I participated in UROP, and I think I have learned a lot of skills through the program. If it weren't for UROP, I wouldn't have participated in research, mostly because I didn't know how to approach professors or didn't think I was eligible. But being a part of UROP has brought me out of my shell and into the real world. As a freshman, there are so many things that you need to do, meet new friends, and adapt to a new environment, and being a part of this program has taught me academic skills and social skills, which I am grateful for. Also, the research I was a part of was related to digital media art, which is not in my discipline, and I think it helped me to open my eyes to something that I didn't know before, which was fascinating to learn! | I am a part of Lambda Alpha Epsilon, a criminology fraternity! |
