Makayla is in her fourth year studying Chemical Engineering with a minor in Biology at the University of New Brunswick. When Makayla is not studying, she enjoys reading, spending time outside with friends, or going to the gym. She can often be found in a barn with her horses or coaching horseback riding lessons. Makayla is one of the Speakers Directors for Reaching Higher and she is excited to connect with students from various backgrounds who are interested in research and hopes that this event is inspiring and informative for everyone.
