I am a 3rd year PhD student in Biomedical Engineering researching methods for tissue engineering the human ear. In addition to my work, I am an active member of the Biomedical Engineering Society, Cornell Graduate Students United, and I have recently joined the Ithaca based Improv group, the Comedy Flops. My goal is to improve my oral, written, and multimedia based communication skills so I can better share the knowledge of scientific advancement with the general public.
