Alexander Eden, M.S.

I am a proud first-generation college graduate of immigrant parents from Central America (El Salvador & Honduras). Currently, I am wrapping up my first year in a Biology Ph.D. program. My research interests lie STEM and Biology education. More specifically, I am interested in the transition from high school into college. I have had several experiences in the world of education, and most recently taught biology in an urban high school in Massachusetts. Teaching reinforced my passion for making a difference, and further cemented by desire to pursue a PhD. When I am not busy learning, I enjoy traveling (have visited 34 states), watching movies, and simply going out to have fun. I am a strong believer in the power of positivity and good vibes, and always make it a mission to spread smiles. To the person reading this, what is something good that has happened to you recently?
