Please answer the question you selected above in the area provided.:
UROP has impacted my time at FSU in many positive ways. 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. And finally, this experience provided me with an opportunity to go to a conference in Boston with my mentor to present our research. That is a unique experience that I would've never had the opportunity to explore without this wonderful program.

My interests and hobbies include hanging out with my friends and family, hiking, skiing, going to the beach, and running. I am also involved in Phi Delta Epsilon, Kappa Kappa Gamma, and Best Buddies.
