My core values of integrity, service, and justice have guided me throughout my scientific journey to use education to promote diversity, inclusion, and community outreach. I truly believe that science should be accessible to everyone and I deeply care about doing my part to achieve this goal. My commitment to promoting diversity and inclusion in academia is grounded in my years of mentoring STEM students from underrepresented communities including women, first-generation and economically-underprivileged students. Watching my mentees not only complete but excel in their research is one of the most fulfilling facets of my career.
