Hi, my name is Sarah and I am a graduate of the UW Honors Program! While at the University of Washington, I got involved in research through the BioRobotics Lab, and throughout my time here I explored and expanded my interest in the many facets of neuroscience through a combination of research and my major classes. I will be attending Vanderbilt University in the Fall to pursue a PhD through their Neuroscience graduate program. I am grateful for the many experiences that made my time at UW so special, from studying abroad in Italy the summer going into my Junior year, to being a member of UW Chorale for all four years here as I found a meaningful sense of community and a way to keep music in my life during my college years. I will never stop being grateful for all the incredible people who have touched my life here and made UW a place that will always hold a special place in my heart!
