Past research Experience:
My research experience began at Texas A&M University. I worked during the summer of 2007 to culture endothelial cells of lymphatic vessels. There, I acquired some basic science research skills.

I then worked with endocrinologist Dr. Alice Chang at UT Southwestern in the summer of 2009 and 2010, participating in clinical research pertaining to women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS).

Current research areas of Interest:
I am currently very interested in the metabolic and cardiovascular health of women with PCOS.

Current professional trajectory:
I would like to be able to contribute to the development of medicine by participating in medical research in the future.

Personal words of wisdom:
As many passionate doctors and scientists would say, “figure out what work you would do for free and then get paid for it.”
