  • PLU gave me. This connection nurtured me and allowed me to find my passion. I eventually changed what I wanted to do with my life and I can thank everyone at PLU for helping me realize what I wanted to do. What’s next? Next year I am going to be attending the University of British Columbia where I will be pursuing my Ph.D. in molecular biology.  The particular lab that I will be in focuses on how a cell can get what it needs from the environment and get rid of waste.  When this process goes wrong

  • in English literature Why PLU? After taking a tour, I was convinced. PLU felt like home. I was excited about the Wild Hope Project, International Honors, and the small class size. I sat in on a class and the professor knew everyone’s name and the class itself was a space where people could come together as valued intellectuals on a common search for more knowledge. There was no feel of hierarchy, just a shared passion for learning. That’s exactly what I wanted out of my collegiate experience

  • batteries store more energy per mass (specific energy) and per volume (energy density) than Li-ion batteries, but cannot discharge that energy as quickly as modern electronics need because metal anodes oxidize too slowly. We hypothesize that the specific power of metal-air batteries, as a class, would increase if the electrochemically accessible interfacial areas of metal anodes were greatly increased by supporting the redox-active metal component on nanostructured, porous current collectors. In such a

  • perhaps, I will get a degree in international relations…or another subject all together! While working on my capstone (which focuses on modern Korean history) I have only been more drawn to history and more drawn to Korea in particular. In the more distant and vaguer future I think I would like to work on the international level in some way. but as of right now, I am just gong with the flow and seeing where life takes me.
