Rob Schultz

Yo! I'm Rob Schultz. I'm a junior majoring in Biomedical Engineering at ASU. I am a member of the Rugby team on campus and a leader in the Respect Movement. I grew up on the lake in Prior Lake, Minnesota where I used to dream of being a scientist one day. Now, I'm excited that iGem has given me my first opportunity to contribute to a project!
