My name is Ryder Paslay and I’m currently entering my fourth year in the chemical engineering and chemistry programs at the University of Idaho. I’ve been involved in the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) and the Society of Women Engineers (SWE) on campus in the past. Doing research has been very interesting albeit challenging to get to learn and study along with the rest of the staff at the Luckhart lab. I enjoy reading, lifting weights, and painting miniatures when I’m outside of the lab.
