Michelle Gonzalez To All Instructors
My name is Michelle Gonzalez, and I LOVE science and math—they’re like puzzles, it requires us to think with an open mind and expand our knowledge, and while at it, it help us understand the world! I graduated from High Point University in 2020 with a degree in Biology (with a focus on Health Sciences) and a minor in Mathematics (reaching although way to College Calculus 4. Hint: YES I LOVE AND FIND MATH BEAUTIFULLY CHALLENGING and I love a good challenge).
But I didn’t stop there! I went back to school and earned my Master’s in Nanoscience from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro in 2023.
Nanoscience is super cool because it mixes math, chemistry, biology, physics, ethics, and even more... to solve real-world problems! My research was all about using tiny molecular tools, like CRISPR systems, to potentially create a coding system to store digital information inside DNA—kind of like turning DNA into a super tiny hard drive!
I’m passionate about learning, teaching, and showing how the things we study in school connect to the real world. I believe math is not just numbers—it’s a beautiful, universal language and superpower that helps us explore science, solve problems, and even create new technology!
I have big dreams for the future! I hope to either go to medical school or pursue a PhD so I can keep learning, discovering, and making a difference in the world of science and healthcare.
I love cooking, baking, running, hiking, traveling, and watching movies. Whether it's trying new foods, exploring new places, or enjoying a great film, I love discovering new things—just like in science!
