What is your current research focus? Over the summer, I was directly involved in research at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida. I examined breast cancer patients' humoral and cellular responses after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine. Additionally, I researched how single and multiagent chemotherapy affects the robustness of antibody-mediated responses.
Are there any other research related activities you participate(d) in? In 2020-2021, I worked with the Leadership Learning Research Center (LLRC) at Florida State to determine whether academic leadership programs are taught through a positional, relational, or hybrid lens. In 2021, I showcased my project at the Florida Undergraduate Research Conference (FURC).
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. Honestly, UROP was the best thing to ever happen to me. As a sophomore, I was extremely intimidated by the research community after being rejected multiple times throughout the year. Being a part of UROP gave me the opportunity to choose the research I wanted to be a part of and feel welcomed by a supportive community. I have grown immensely throughout the program from being a shy, UROP student to a confident UROP leader. The skills that I've learned through UROP will follow me throughout the rest of my career and future endeavors.
