I am a first-generation, senior Environmental Science major with a Biology minor and will be graduating in May 2022. Born and raised in San Antonio, Texas, I am very excited to move to Boston, MA soon to start my PhD in Biological Sciences in Public Health at Harvard University where I hope to study Space Toxicology.

I am currently the President of the National Society of Leadership and Success (NSLS) St. Mary’s chapter, Founder and Vice President of StMU Humanitarians, and have been a MARC U*STAR scholar for almost 2 years. I also angle myself as a business-scientist, as I have authored a children’s book (We Are All Human) and avidly market it to bookstores/bookshops. In my summers as a St. Mary’s student, I have completed research projects at Michigan State University, Rutgers University, and with University of Louisville.
