Why you chose your major

The electives peaked my interest and seemed more interesting than those of biological science.

Favorite course

Psychology of social behavior, the theme for the course was "what makes people tick," so I got to learn why/how each of us has the personality that we do.

Research or internship experience

I've researched Sorcumm (corn-like plants) in a genetics lab.

Other involvement

Teammates Mentoring program, NUMeds, Dance Marathon, Gamma Phi Beta, volunteer at Bryan East.

Why you chose Nebraska

Both of my parents plus many other family members came here so I wanted to carry the tradition on.
