The Cal Lutheran Experience

Biology

When I was a freshman, one of my high school teachers said, 'She's going to be a researcher—that's just what she wants to do.' This research, to me, could be life changing, and it's also something that I absolutely love.

Working with Dr. Kingsbury has been eye-opening, to say the least. Every day has been an adventure in learning all the advance techniques professional chemists employ in expertly manipulating materials. My experience has grown greatly since the start of my research endeavors.

Theatre Arts

When students are able to assist me in the costume design process for television commercials or for the stage, it best prepares them for a career in the industry by giving them real world, relatable experiences. They are able to creatively problem solve and to quickly think on their feet. As their teacher, my goal in the classroom is to give students as many tools and opportunities as possible to equip them for situations whether creative or practical.
