Highlight quote
"At ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø I was perhaps inspired, maybe forced, or somehow convinced that I had to look at my academic strategy critically and decide for myself what I was doing with my four years."
Current projects
I am a Graduate Assistant performing research and teaching duties as
part of my PhD program in Chemistry. ÌýMy current Research focus/Project is
"Controlled Synthesis of Metal and Oxide Hybrid Nanoparticles for
Catalysis"Ìý
Undergraduate Research
I worked under Dr. Courtney Hatch, my project name was ":Ìý Effects of
mineral aerosol heterogeneous chemistry on ocean bioproductivity and
atmospheric chemistry and climate."
How ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø prepared me for success
At ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø I developed a strong and justified confidence in my research
skills. ÌýThe liberal arts approach at ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø gave me the practical skills
required to navigate any chemistry lab, but also the critical thinking
experience to maintain a healthy skepticism, of published reports as well as my
own results, necessary to be a good scientist.
Future plans
I can see myself happy in a wide variety of professions, though my first
choice would be to work at a place as wonderful as ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø College.
Future plans
It's not too late to do what you want.
