Hi everyone! I'm a third year in Dr. Oen's group and my role in the NYU Dental Journalism Club is Treasurer. My whole life I've lived within a 50 mile bubble of my home near San Francisco, California. I graduated from UC Santa Cruz and then completed a post-baccalaureate at CSU East Bay, so moving out of my bubble and to New York during the pandemic was a significant change. In my free time, I enjoy trying new restaurants and going out to bike, hike, and play golf. I look forward to a great year working with everyone in the NYU Dental Journalism Club!
