BA Economics from the University of Georgia, 2017

I grew up in East Tennessee and completed my BA in Economics at the University of Georgia. As an undergraduate, I worked in a behavioral neuropharmacology lab studying the cognitive effects of the chemical contraceptives ethinyl estradiol and levonorgestrel. I also tested glycosaminoglycan hydrogel and stem cell therapies for neurotrauma. I have volunteered in hospice care, for Remote Area Medical and Habitat for Humanity. As an advocate for—and patient of—the University of Georgia Health Services, I organized outreach to address student issues of mental health and wellness.
