Juliette grew up in the city of San Bernardino, Southern California. She first learned about research in 2023 through a research program at her nearest hospital, and fell in love with science! After graduating from Aquinas High School in 2024, she decided to take a big leap and travel across the country to the University of Notre Dame in Indiana as a Mary E. Galvin and Transformational Leaders Program Scholar. She currently studies Neuroscience and Chinese, intending to become a trilingual physician in the future. In her free time, she loves to weight lift and try to beat her running PR. Through the Harvard Stem Cell Institute’s Internship Program, Dr. Viral Shah took her under his wing in the summer of 2025 studying airway stem cell biology. She hopes to one day honor her mentors and the people who support her through making an impact on her surroundings and contributing to the future of science!
