Mentors who have altered my life: My 6th grade science teacher sparked an interest in science and undergraduate mentors helped to continue that spark into a career path in science.
In my time off, I enjoy: Traveling, exploring Michigan, and enjoying the outdoors.
What profession, other than your own, would you enjoy? I think I would enjoy being a middle or high school teacher.
