CURRENT MISSION

To learn

ABOUT ME

I graduated from UNCA with a BS in Biology, and I am currently in graduate school studying anesthesiology. I am a vegan, and I love long conversations. I always try to be more open minded, but not so much that my brains fall out. I love musical theater, and I enjoy singing and acting. I am particularly passionate about biology and medicine, and I love spiders. I value evidence, science, and reason.

PHILOSOPHY

I always want to learn and reevaluate my own ideas in pursuit of the truth.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once, on a biology field trip, a group of dolphins came into the marsh where we were all standing. I could not believe how close they came in. It was pretty incredible.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have read a lot about spiders and constantly try to learn more...I could talk for quite awhile about that. I have a work background in pharmacy and am pursuing a career in allied health. I also can knit.
