Activities and Interests

I am a Texan born and raised, trying to survive the Philadelphia winters! In my free time, I like to swim and play squash. I am a big pro and college sports fan. I co-founded the Drexel Biomedical Graduate Student Association (DBGA) and served as the vice president in our first year.
