College of Science Student Activity Board (COSSAB), School of Performing Arts, Book Club, Power Yoga, Vis Viva Dance Company, and the RIT Players.
Why RIT and the College of Science?
As a hard-of-hearing student, I have found RIT’s support to be incredible. I also appreciate the strong collaboration between faculty and students in achieving success!
What is your advice for prospective college students?
Taking so many science classes may seem overwhelming at first, but the material is so interesting that you won’t even realise how much you’re doing! Your peers are your best resource! Your community is here to support you!
What research projects have you been involved in or are currently working on?
I am currently the project leader for the Crystallin project in Michel Lab! I research GBC proteins in the eye lens that form cataracts.
