Last summer I had the privilege to travel to Malaysia and carry out research with Dr Norainy Hussin where we aimed to use environmental DNA to detect the presence of the giant clam!

I am a current undergraduate student at Cornell University studying Biological Sciences in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. Through my studies in Biology and my observation of the natural world, I have developed a deep interest in conservation and intersectional climate justice. Particularly, I am interested in using innovative tools such as eDNA barcoding to restore ecosystems and  in mitigating and reversing the effects of climate change. For this reason, I am very grateful to be working in the Cheong Lab this summer as a part of the Commons Biodiversity Project. 

Outside my academics I love to read books, cook and watch movies.
