Extra Curricular Information

The last five years, I have focused heavily on my PhD work: research, publications, and conferences. Outside of my schoolwork, I have devoted most of my energy to church-related and community service activities through my university's Catholic Student Union. I have also been a member of the American Chemical Society since 2000, and have taken advantage of many opportunites to travel to ACS meetings and conferences.

In undergraduate, most of my extracurriculars were concentrated in my first two years, because I worked PT during my final two years and took a heavy load of classes. Some of my most significant extracurriculars included:

American Chemical Society student affiliate
Undergraduate Economics Society
Alternative Spring Breaks
Gators Involved in Volunteer Endeavors
Study Abroad in Salamanca

Additional info & updates

I graduated with a BA in Economics and Chemistry in 2000. To strengthen my academic background, I chose to attend grad school first. My first attempt at grad school (economics) failed miserably - it was completely wrong for me and I was a little bit too young to handle it. I left towards the end of my second semester with what I could only describe as "YIKES!!!" grades. In 2001, I went in a completely new direction and enrolled in the chemistry program at my alma mater. I recovered and will graduate with a PhD this summer. I am interested in intellectual property (patent law). I will be attending Duke University.

April 6 - After going to an admit day at Duke, I made the decision to attend. I withdrew all other apps immediately and also removed my name from the W&M and UMich waitlists since I had decided I wasn't interested.
