What is your current research focus? As a freshman at FSU, I pursued a UROP Project under the Department of Economics in the College of Social Science and Public Policy. My work focused on the honesty and dishonesty associated with the transaction of money, where I contribute to data collection, analysis, and presentation skills to support ongoing academic studies.

Are there any other research related activities you participate(d) in? {Empty}

Answer one of the following two questions about being a UROP Leader or your UROP background. How has UROP impacted your time at FSU?

Please answer the question you selected above in the area provided. UROP was by far one of the most transformative opportunities of my freshman year. Research was never something I thought I would have the opportunity to pursue and I am so thankful for this program for pouring into me the resources and mentors needed to pursue research at the undergraduate level. Loved the program so much I had to come back as a UROP Leader to give back everything this program gave to me.

Please list any other hobbies or interests you would like to share I'm a big music person! I love to sing, write music, and play guitar. I'm also a book worm and am always ready to give a recommendation!
