“My experience at Baylor has completely been shaped by the Honors College. The Baylor Interdisciplinary Core allowed me to broaden my horizons. Through it, I was able to form connections with a cohort of amazing students and professors and to engage meaningfully with new perspectives and other cultures. The Honors Program complemented that by allowing me to dive into research through my honors thesis. Through the support of the Getterman Program, I had the freedom to try new things. I discovered a love for research through the thesis project and experience as an undergraduate research assistant. After graduation, I will be staying at Baylor for graduate school. I will pursue my Ph.D. in Psychology with a concentration in behavioral neuroscience. I hope to provide knowledge regarding mind-body medicine and how patients can best receive positive benefits from such a field.”
