This website serves as my research portfolio where you can find some of the projects that I've worked on. I am passionate about public health and ensuring healthcare is available to everyone in an equitable way. I am currently interested in attending graduate school to pursue my interest in public health research!
Currently, I am completing my senior undergraduate thesis project in the Scott Huettel Lab. My research aims to understand how people make decisions, specifically about food given its impact on the environment. For this study, we are using a previous paradigm with several modifications. Namely, we are tracking subjects' eyes (using an EyeLink) to determine the possible mechanisms at play during their decision-making process. This thesis will culminate in my Graduation with Distinction honor from Duke. For more information regarding this project, go here.
I am also an undergrad research assistant in the Sheng Yang He Molecular Biology Lab, which primarily studies plants and their response to climate change.
