Biography
Within my research, I study ovarian and endometrial cancer, specifically personalized medicine through the production of Patient-Derived Organoid Models. I enjoy being a part of this research as it truly broadens my understanding of the barriers within patient care, especially within reproductive cancer. It is especially rewarding to contribute to work that may help improve future treatment decisions and outcomes for patients. 
 
Outside of research, you will catch me doing the most random things! I love hanging out with my friends, traveling , playing tennis, and watching Kdramas! You will most likely catch me always drinking boba with my favorite meal of sushi or chicken. Additionally, I love participating in cultural events within our campus, such as SASA and ISA.
