I am an undergraduate transfer student at UC Merced majoring in Psychology, with plans to pursue a second major in Public Health and a minor in Community Research and Service. I am also a member of the University Honors Program. My research interests include health psychology, psychoneuroimmunology, and the factors influencing health behaviors. I am currently working with Dr. Martin Hagger on an honors research project examining vaccination beliefs among Latino populations in California's Central Valley. I hope to pursue a PhD in Psychology and continue conducting interdisciplinary research.
Outside of research, I enjoy mentoring students, reading, art, yoga, and weightlifting.
