I have an undergraduate in Human Biology with my final composition written about Alzheimer's disease advancements (2013). I also worked briefly at the Buck Institute for Aging with projects exclusively to studying Alzheimer's in transgenic mice and their intracellular components. I am very comfortable with the science and mechanism of Alzheimer's and I also worked at numerous hospitals with geriatric patients and am familiar with Alzheimer patient's behaviors and progressions. I would really like to be part of this community.

A very accommodating environment that has allowed me to help out a good cause and give me things to do which I am interested in.

This is my second year volunteering for the Alzheimer's Association's "Blondes vs. Brunettes Powderpuff Football Fundraiser." As a volunteer driven event, we get to be extremely hands on and are very involved in the behind the scenes work. Our Association contact, Lacey, does a great job of balancing when to sit back and when to jump in and help us. She's always available when we need her and has a lot of great resources to help make our jobs easier. Getting to work with a young group of professionals who are all so passionate and driven for this cause has been extremely rewarding!
