On campus, she is a CHEM 2070 TA, a member of Cornell Surgical Society, and an advisor for PATCH. She is involved in research at the Casteel Lab in the School of Integrative Plant Sciences.

In previous summers, she has stayed in Ithaca to participate in the Boyce Thompson Institute REU program, where she worked at the Casteel Lab.
Her words of advice to new students
“Don’t fret!! OUB and the rest of the Cornell community is here for you. You will be fine and change is always scary but it’ll work out at the end. Good luck and have fun on your journey through Cornell!”
