  • Rachel Galfo

    Ph.D. Student

    I am a Floridian in the sense that I grew up watching space shuttle launches from my backyard (and I went to Astronaut high), but Oregon has really captured my heart. I enjoy the beautiful hikes here, hanging out with my amazing fellow grad students, and dancing.
