About

A curious and hardworking biomedical engineer, who recently graduated Summa Cum Laude from the University of Southern California. While I love the applications of biomedical engineering to all aspects of the medical field (cardiology, neurology, etc.), I have a particularly strong interest in the intersection of biomedical engineering and orthopedics. I plan to pursue an M.D./Ph.D., studying tissue engineering with the hope of improving orthopedic surgery (particularly concerning ACL reconstructions) utilizing novel regenerative medicine techniques, such as using cells in regenerating lizard tails to grow human collagen.
