Hi! I’m a second-year Running Start student studying chemistry and biology. I’m working towards my associate's in science transfer degree and plan to major in biochemistry.  I was born and raised in the greater Seattle area, and have lived in Renton, SeaTac, Kent, and Federal Way. I got involved on campus because I wanted to bring my experience in community organizing and leadership to my school.
