I am a third-year chemistry student with a strong interest in science and the environment. At Monmouth, I participate in faculty-led research, which is further developing my interest in chemistry. Outside of school, I volunteer at a local stable that provides equine therapy for veterans, where I help care for the horses. I also work at a local gym and enjoy staying active!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
