My current research focus is the role of various interventions on mild cognitive impairment (MCI).
During my time in UROP, I researched the role of information communication technology (ICT) on mitigating age-related cognitive decline in older adults.
How do you hope to impact your students as a UROP Leader?
As a UROP Leader, I hope to create a space where UROP students can learn, grow, and challenge themselves as both researchers and individuals. I want to not only help students learn about and engage in research, but also mentor and support them in and out of the classroom!
Outside of UROP, I currently serve as the Dancer Relations Director of Dance Marathon at FSU. I am also actively involved in the FSU Pre-PA Society (previous VP) and the Undergraduate Chapter of the American Medical Women's Association (previous Social Chair). Outside of academics, I love getting coffee, reading, and going to the beach!
