Biography

I am a recent graduate from the Psychology program at UW–Madison, with certificates in Graphic Design, Disability Rights & Services, and Leadership. Currently, I am a certified nurse assistant with experience in cardiology, home care, and hospice. In the summer of 2024, I joined the School of Nursing as a research intern on a study led by Dr. Sheng. This study explores the feasibility of identifying indicators of breast cancer in Asian American women affected by stress and physical activity. Our goal is to improve the identification and management of cancer-related distress by examining its contributing sources. Working with Dr. Sheng has provided me with comprehensive insight into the research process, from recruitment to data collection and beyond. I am currently pursuing a path towards medical school. Outside of work and research, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, planning events, and relaxing with shows in bed.
