Message for researchers
I will strive to help create an ideal research environment for researchers.
What inspired me to become a research administrator (URA)
When I was a graduate student, I noticed that researchers weren’t always able to spend as much time on their research as they wanted. This sparked my interest in research support. I wanted to use my experience in graduate school to provide empathetic support to researchers by working closely where research actually takes place. That’s why I decided to apply to become a university research administrator (URA).
