Bio

My name is Rowan, and I made my way to Lewis and Clark from Austin, TX. I am pursuing a major in biochemistry and molecular biology and working towards entering medical school after graduating Lewis and Clark. I’m particularly interested in structural biochemistry, medicinal chemistry, and oncology. I have spent the past two summers engaging in research at St. Jude Children’s Research hospital studying an enzyme called carboxylesterase. While at Lewis and Clark, I’ve been a member of the swim team, and I act as one of the men’s team captains. In addition to swimming, I love to cook, photoshop, camp, and travel.
