Biography

I am a third-year undergraduate student at the University of Wisconsin–Madison studying Biology and Disability Rights and Services. As a pre-med student with a strong interest in pediatrics, I am particularly motivated by work that integrates biological research with equity, accessibility, and patient-centered care.  Working in Dr. Montgomery’s lab gives me the opportunity to learn how research can directly improve the quality of life for children undergoing cancer treatment. Being involved in this work supports my goal of becoming a pediatric physician and helps me better understand how scientific research connects to compassionate, patient-centered care.
