Department: Public Health Sciences

I believe undergraduate research is critical for developing critical thinking, technical proficiency, and academic curiosity. It creates opportunities where students can apply theoretical knowledge to complex, real-world research problems it. As a member of the Council on Undergraduate Research, I aim to expand access to research opportunities, support diverse student researchers, and cultivate critical thinking skills that prepare undergraduates for future scholarly or professional success.
