| 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 has been an amazing opportunity to segue into research exposure and experience. I was able to find the research lab that I have now been a part of for two years from the UROP program, and I absolutely love my research lab. I have made so many connections with PhD candidates and research professors, and have learned so many different experimental procedures and analyses. Because I had such a great experience with the research process, I wanted to become a UROP leader to help people like me with little prior research knowledge to become aware of the undergraduate research opportunities and benefits. |

I love to read and love animals! |
