I was born and raised on the border of Texas in the city of Brownsville. Upon graduating in the Spring of 2026, I will receive a bachelor's degree in forensic science biology. After graduation, I plan to pursue a medical degree to specialize in cardiology or pediatrics. While at St. Mary's University, I have assisted in the planning committee for the Women in STEM dinner, an event empowering and encouraging all people to support and appreciate the work done in the science community by women. I have also participated in the TRiO Student Support Services Program, where I serve as a peer coach and tutor for the students within the program to assist with students who are first-generation, low-income, or have a documented disability. Additionally, I participated as an undergraduate research student under the direction of Dr. Enslow and Dr. McLeod, where I have extended my curiosity in immunology and forensics research.
