Why did you choose to attend Marymount University?<\/h3>\n

I was initially drawn to Marymount because it’s my father’s alma mater. I played volleyball in high school and was recruited to be a member of the Marymount Women’s Volleyball team<\/a> by Coach Beth Ann Wilson<\/a>. During my campus visit, I was able to meet her and watch a Men’s Volleyball game. I just fell in love with the whole university.<\/p>\n

What sparked your interest in Biochemistry and Mathematics?<\/h3>\n

I have always been interested in the medical field and when I was in high school, I did well in mathematics and became interested in biology. During my first year at Marymount, one of my professors convinced me to look into biochemistry as a major and I did! I had a great experience with one of my calculus professors and she inspired me to continue with the subject as an additional major. I like math because it’s a big puzzle, and biochemistry is too. Both of these majors have really helped me while conducting research as an undergraduate. <\/p>\n
