Outside the lab you can find me reading, hiking, rock climbing, or visiting local coffee shops.

I enjoy visiting the National Parks (Acadia NP pictured above) whenever I get the chance. My goal to to visit all of them- currently I have visited 7 of 63.

Recently I have been enjoying time in nature by exploring the local trails or rock climbing available through the Columbus Metro Parks system.

In my free time, I enjoy reading books from almost any genre. On the weekends I enjoy supporting local coffee shops, my favorites in Columbus include Stauf's and Fox in the Snow.
