Selected Projects

Projects

Research, outreach, and collaborative work across ecology, DNA barcoding, and science communication.

SRI Ant Ecology Project

Quantitative analysis and DNA barcode generation for an ant-plant symbiosis project through the University of Utah Science Research Initiative. I contributed to data counting, analysis, and poster preparation, and presented the work at conferences.

Conferences: SACNAS NDiSTEM 2025, UCUR 2026

Poster reflects my contribution to analysis and presentation; specimen collection was performed by the lab.

Youth Teaching Youth Barcoding Project

DNA barcoding project focused on ants, beetles, and mosquitoes in collaboration with Cold Spring Harbor Laboratories. I contributed to lab work, barcoding workflow, and presentations.

Presentations: 3 presentations

If you later want, this section can include the exact program name once you remember it.

Pre-REU 2025: Crystallographic Restriction

Introductory research experience connected to the University of Utah pre-REU program. Introduced to Mathematical research, where I focused on building a mathmatical model to represent the Lorentz Time Cone. This Pre-REU focused on Crystallographic matrices

Edge of Space Academy 2026

Placeholder for work, presentations, or media from the cohort.
