Hello! My name is Esha Mathur. I am a rising junior at the University of Arizona. I am
majoring in Biology with an emphasis in Biomedical Sciences, and minoring in Pharmaceutical
Sciences. Since the summer of 2022, I have been working with Dr. Julie Armin to understand
how policies affect cancer care access for individuals with Intellectual or Developmental
Disabilities (IDD). My time in Dr. Armin’s lab inspired me to do my part to aid this marginalized
community. Last year, I began working with autistic children as a behavior technician. I have
gotten to see first-hand the challenges individuals with IDD and their families face. I hope to
continue to make a positive difference in the IDD community both in and outside of the lab! In
my free time, I love exploring Tucson’s hiking trails with my dog, Buddy. My favorite is Tanque
Verde Falls, where there are almost always pools of water to enjoy! I also love making jewelry.
You can often catch me making a pair of earrings at a local coffee spot!
