  selected_response: 'I am excited to share with others my passion and enthusiasm for research and scientific discovery. UROP heightened my curiosity and allowed me to ask questions and connect concepts learned in the classroom to the real world. I hope to encourage students to investigate their research inquiries and not be afraid to fail. Their successes and failures are equally substantive and impressive, and I am eager to assist students throughout their research experiences. I hope to share my stories and research wisdom with them, and hope that students are able to possibly learn from my research experiences, successes, and failures. I hope to give students the confidence they need to present at the URS, and, even if they decide after UROP is over that they do not enjoy research, I hope that they learned a great deal about it and the process. Most importantly, I want my students to have someone to rely on, whether it be research related or not, and to be the person students can go to when they are experiencing challenges. I hope to leave a lasting imprint on my students as I will support and encourage them to reach for their goals and beyond.'

  what_is_your_current_research_focus_: 'My research experience began in high school when I spent three years completing a research project which investigated the effects of G. parvispora on mitigating K. brevis during Red Tide blooms. I continued with research in college and during my UROP experience, I spent time developing algorithm which assesses the relationship between biomass density of T. Testudinum, a common Floridian seagrass, and the nutrient concentrations in the surrounding estuaries throughout several coastal regions in South Florida. I continued with this project after UROP, focusing on investigating K. brevis population behaviors, nutrient profiles, etc. while also assisting in culturing algae populations in the lab.'
