As a senior HEB concentrator, I am investigating how an evolutionary approach to exercise can reduce anxiety and depression in the college student population. Through personal experience and witnessing the mental health crisis exacerbated by the pandemic, I’ve realized that harnessing such an accessible, versatile tool can greatly improve daily life. I’m excited to learn more about the interplay between physical and mental wellbeing. In my free time I enjoy CrossFit, graphic design, going to the beach, corgi watching, and exploring food spots around town.
