What I'm looking for

I’m seeking to contribute to an entry level research role where I can support human-subjects studies, including participant recruitment, documentation, literature review, and evidence synthesis—bringing strong attention to detail, professionalism, and a growth mindset.

I’m a research-oriented Integrated Health Science student at Kennesaw State University with hands-on experience in human-subjects research, participant engagement, research coordination, literature review, and interdisciplinary collaboration. Through dementia-focused XR/dementia education research, I supported participant recruitment, survey administration, evidence synthesis, and the development of technology-assisted educational tools.

I also contributed to EEG-based attention/distraction studies in the VIP-BAT EEG Lab, supporting data collection and interpretation using EMOTIV EEG hardware/software and MATLAB for signal processing. Outside research, I strengthen patient-facing communication through tutoring and assistant teaching, and I completed phlebotomy training with infection control and specimen handling responsibilities—grounding my professionalism and growth mindset for an entry level research role.
