BIOGRAPHY

My undergraduate career gave me the opportunities to perform cutting edge research and take graduate-level chemistry classes. In the spring of my freshman year at UW-Madison, I joined Professor Stahl’s research group where I assisted in several research projects. Furthermore, I was chosen to participate in the 2019 International Research Experiences for Students (IRES) Fellowship through the NSF Center for C–H Functionalization (CCHF), where I spent 10 weeks over the summer of 2019 in Professor Kenichiro Itami’s lab at Nagoya University in Nagoya, Japan. The experiences I had as an undergraduate student were influential in my decision to pursue graduate school at Caltech in the fall of 2020.
