I am a second year undergraduate student majoring in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology and minoring in Advanced Developmental Psychology at the University of California, Los Angeles. My interests in the medical field, specifically in pediatrics and general family medicine, are directly fueled by my passions in anti-cancer natural product and small molecule synthetic research which has allowed me to witness a different, more comprehensive perspective of medicine than others. As a strong-willed and empathetic individual, I possess qualities that enable me to communicate effectively with colleagues and patients while maintaining a professional and compassionate approach.
