Interesting facts: I'm an Air Force brat who enjoyed growing up around the world. I'm also a proud 3X graduate of FSU and a former Marching Chief.
Hobbies/interests: I enjoy volunteering with Habitat for Humanity, playing trivia with friends, and traveling.
Undergraduate Research: "I think participating in undergraduate research allows students to get some real-world experience in fields they're interested in, and it can help them better decide what they would—or wouldn't—like to do for a future career. I think it also allows them to expand their horizons into new areas of interest, make connections, and grow in their time management, communication, and problem-solving skills."

Interesting fact: I have been to 12 countries in 3 continents.
Hobbies/interests: I enjoy cooking and baking, watching Sex & the City reruns, and completing word puzzles.
Undergraduate Research: "My philosophy is that education is a catalyst for social change. I believe any experience that compels one to engage critically and empathetically in an epistemic activity—like undergraduate research—is key to shaping a student’s perspective of themselves and their surroundings, and empowers them to put good out into the world."

Interesting facts: I have three cats, can speak three different languages and was a public librarian for five years.
Hobbies/interests: I enjoy rollerblading, listening to audiobooks, and going to concerts.
Undergraduate Research: "Participating in Undergraduate Research allows students to explore their areas of interest, find new passions, get hands-on experience, and learn new skills. Engaging in research allows them to be better informed individuals, it broadens their world-view and prepares them for life after FSU."
