I'm a four year undergraduate student at the University of Florida majoring in Behavioral & Cognitive Neuroscience with a minor in Spanish, on the pre-dental track.

​

I have always loved exploring language and culture, and exchanging the two to build meaningful connections with people from all over the world. As part of the UF International Scholars Program, I've been able to continue living out my passion for these meaningful cultural experiences and balance the STEM-heavy curriculum that comes with my pre-dental studies. So far on my journey, I've learned so much about myself and the world of people around me— especially about the power of a smile to cross the boundaries between us, regardless of language or cultural barriers. I hope to carry these universal values in my heart and my work, wherever I go.
