Hi, I’m Paige Matthews! I grew up mainly in Connecticut, though I have also lived in Boston, Texas, and Georgia before moving to Indiana my junior year of high school. I’m currently a junior and am pursuing a BS in biochemistry along with minors in biology and Italian. In my free time I love to keep in shape by running and lifting weights. I also love baking and anything that is brightly colored or has animal print on it. I started working in the Dann lab with Xiaohui (Schwing!) the summer after my freshman year. I have enjoyed being a part of the lab and I plan to continue my career in science by going to medical school and becoming an orthopedic surgeon.
