Hello Lowell community! I was born and raised in Puerto Rico, where I also majored in Biology in the University of Puerto Rico, Mayagüez Campus. Currently, I am pursuing my PhD studies in the Molecules, Cells, and Organisms program at Harvard, where I am studying the potency and dynamics of stem cells during regeneration in the Srivastava Lab. Outside of lab, I work towards amplifying Latinx diversity and inclusion in STEM. I always aim to reach and support peers interested in pursuing a career in STEM fields— chat with me if you have any questions about it! In my free time, you can find me reading a fiction book, having a cup of coffee, enjoying the sunlight (weather permitting), or doing the three things at the same time.
