My favorite thing about being a graduate student at Miami University is the opportunity to connect and collaborate with talented researchers who continuously inspire me. Presenting my research at the 2025 ACS Conference in Washington, D.C., and meeting scientists in my polymer chemistry field has been one of my proudest accomplishments as a second-year graduate student.
