What is your current research focus?:
For my UROP project, I conducted research that focused on building mobile libraries for rural/ underprivileged areas in the Southern United States. Through this project, I learned about how to make literature accessible to different demographics and how technology can bridge the gaps in education. In the future, I would like to conduct research that focuses on how marginalized people use literature to express their experiences. 

Are there any other research related activities you participate(d) in?:
I hope to apply for an IDEA grant for the summer of 2025, in which I will research the ways that memoirs describe mother-daughter relationships for minority women. 

Answer one of the following two questions about being a UROP Leader or your UROP background. : How do you hope to impact your students as a UROP Leader?
Please answer the question you selected above in the area provided.:
I hope to get my students excited about research and inform them of the many opportunities that it can offer. While research can be intimidating, it is an incredibly rewarding experience that anyone who has the opportunity to participate in values greatly. Sharing my personal love for research will hopefully inspire a similar love for research in others. Additionally, I want to be someone that my students can rely on as a mentor within UROP and beyond.

Outside of UROP, I enjoy reading, journaling, and hanging out with my friends and family.
