I am a Junior Biochemistry and Molecular Biology major and I am in the 8th Cohort of iCons, the 8th color. My interests lie in the health sciences and disease treatments. I am apart of UMass EMS, and absolutely love going to work to help my fellow students. I originally joined the iCons program because I knew that there are problems that cannot be solved by one person alone, but a room full of experts in their respective fields and I wanted to learn how to work with these people. After my first year of iCons, I joined the podcast intending to better my scientific communication skills. I also love science and think that everyone should be able to be interested in it, so I wanted to help bridge the gap between scientific and non-scientific communities and make scientific information more accessible to everyone. Throughout my time in the podcast, I can tell that my communication skills have gotten better. I hope to be able to hone my scientific communication skills as well as creating something interesting, engaging, and fun.
