Return to Boston
May 26, 2019 | Back to the Nowarski Lab In 2018, I was accepted to Harvard Medical School’s Undergraduate Immunology Summer Program. I spent ten weeks in Dr. Roni Nowarski‘s lab, where I had the unique experience of working with brilliant (but understanding) coworkers, cutting-edge biomedical technology, and hundreds upon hundreds of mice. Through the support of the Cornell […]

We’re Half way There
July 15, 2018 | It’s midterm week! My time here at Children’s really is flying by, it seems like just yesterday my project was brand new and intimidating, but now it is finished.

The First Cut is so Fun
July 7, 2018 | As week four comes to an end this puts me close to the halfway mark of my time here at Children’s Hospital. Every week is a new adventure and this one did not disappoint.

Saying Goodbye
July 29, 2016 | 7/21 – 7/29 The last week of my Fellowship is finally here, and I’m sad to see it go. While there were no big final projects or looming internal deadlines, everything still had this note of finality to it. Climate Narrative Response I received an answer from Jeff Biggers fairly early in the week. While […]
Week 7:
Panic and Preparations
July 20, 2016 | July 14 – July 20 Preface I just want to preface this post by telling everyone to always double and triple check arrangements when traveling/moving to a new place. Especially make sure you have all the correct dates lined up or otherwise you could be in the same boat I was. Let me explain: when I […]
Week 6:
Little Changes
July 13, 2016 | July 7 – July 13 Displays I keep finding that nothing in the Sustainability Office is stagnant. Displays are constantly changing in the hopes of pulling in and educating passerby. The water bottle display has undergone a revamp complete with adorable whiteboard art by Eden, another intern. We also intend to add in a giant […]
Week 5:
Business as Usual
July 5, 2016 | June 29 – July 6 As I enter into the latter part of my Fellowship, George and Liz were on vacation for most of the week, so things were a little bit more self-directed. I wasn’t given any new assignments, so it was business as usual, taking care of my regular duties. We had a difficult time […]
Week 4:
Water Bottles, AP Style, and Shifting Expectations
June 27, 2016 | June 22 – June 28 This week I became aware of a fairly new Eco Hawks initiative, wrote more, and recognized a universal truth about working. Down at the central U of I lost and found people have thirty days to claim their lost goods. If those thirty days pass and nobody comes to take an […]
