About Me

My name is Lizzy Lyon and I'm from Colorado Springs Colorado. I am a senior Neuroscience major at Trinity University. I am applying to Optometry School this semester. I have done research with professors from Trinity's Neuroscience and Engineering departments. Projects involved implicit learning in grasping and window crashing in birds. I have been in Taekwondo for many years and am a 1st degree black belt. This is usually the last thing anyone would expect when looking at me. I just completed a midterm for my 2nd degree a week ago. I have gained experience with computers through projects. A few years ago I created a carnivorous plant business with my dad via an online store. I used Photoshop frequently when editing photos for this online business. I have also learned some programming through MatLab for my research.
If you would like to contact me my e-mail is elyon@trinity.edu.
