The Intersection of
Curiosity & Rigor
I’m a student researcher drawn to problems where careful science can change outcomes. Right now, much of my work focuses on understanding and reducing cancer spread—but I’m increasingly interested in the upstream side of the field: prevention, early‑stage intervention, and systems that make proactive care possible.
I am drawn to problems where careful science can change the trajectory of patient care. My research currently targets the reduction of cancer spread, but I am increasingly focused on the future of the field: engineering the tools for prevention and early intervention. My goal is to cultivate both depth and range—combining the seriousness of a researcher with the innovative mindset of a builder.
Beyond the Lab
Outside of STEM, I’m energized by experiences that are fast, immersive, and memorable. I’ve skied in Colorado, flown a plane, and hiked Palo Duro Canyon. One of the most meaningful habits I’ve built is running: it clears my mind, keeps me disciplined, and creates momentum for my fundraising efforts.
