Taylor Linsday grew up in a small town bordering the northwest corner of Albuquerque called Rio Rancho, New Mexico. She chose OSU at first because she was initially drawn to major in Earth Sciences with an Ocean Science option, but quickly changed to chemistry in order to challenge herself and get a broader degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taylor got into research with the help of one of her experimental chemistry professors, who put her in contact with researchers after she mentioned her love of mathematics one day in class. Now, Taylor works in Dr. May Nyman\u2019s group as an undergraduate involved in their carbon capture project. Currently she assists in the synthesis of several tetraperoxo structures so their carbon capture abilities can be characterized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outside of academic pursuits, she enjoys swimming, rock climbing, and playing the flute (or a member of its family) in band ensembles. Taylor is a part of OSU\u2019s Spirit and Sound marching band in the fall and during the offseason plays in the basketball and campus bands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her favorite book is either The Outsiders or The Lost City of the Monkey God. Some of her all-time favorite foods include sopapillas, green chile, tamales, enchiladas, or any Mexican cuisine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking to the future, Taylor plans on attending grad school here in Oregon but is still figuring out what she wants to focus on studying in that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re so proud of Taylor and everything she\u2019s accomplished while at OSU, and we can\u2019t wait to see what she does in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
