I graduated from the University of Rochester in 2011 and decided to stick around for at least another year to gain more research experience before grad school. While I am very ambitious, I know how to balance that with having a good time - and I always make sure to find a place for both.

I appreciate people who are honest and easy going, but who have some sort of direction in their lives. I know what I want out of life and I value that in others.

I am currently working as a Research Assistant in the Neurodevelopmental and Behavioral Pediatric department at the University of Rochester Medical Center. In January, I will begin the Accelerated Master's in Nursing (pediatrics) program at the University of Rochester, which will consist of earning both my BSN and MSN degrees. I plan and aspire to work in developmental pediatrics when I've completed the program.

My future
Finding new things to do in a city that I've spent my whole life in

With my friends, at a bar or just hanging out at someone's house. But it's also nice having a night to myself from time to time.
