Hello! My name is Brooke Staveland and I am from Santa Cruz California! I am majoring in Math with a minor in Mind/Brain studies, and am happy to nerd out with anyone on brain/neuroscience/what is reality/math stuff. As a sophomore next year, I will have already worked in two different research labs (its really easy to do at GW)! One was about studying the nature of fly sperm (really odd but really fun) and the lab I am currently in is a particle physics lab (yay for being out of my league!). The Honors Program is honestly one of the best things about GW; yay for small classes, smart communities, and the best advisors ever! I also love to swim and my favorite club on campus is NAMI, which strives to end the stigma around mental illness. Other than that I will be hunting for decent coffee shops (not Starbucks!) or having movie and cooking nights with friends!
