About me
Hello! My name is Tanya Lubbe and I am currently a fourth-year undergraduate student at the University of Florida majoring in Microbiology and Cell Science and Chinese Language and Literature. I am in the process of applying to graduate school and, following my graduation in May 2024, plan to attend a molecular biology/genetics master's programs abroad in order to advance my studies. I have an immense passion for language, animals, and genetics and hope to find a career that allows me exercise my knowledge in all.
This ePortfolio was designed to showcase my global experiences and overall journey throughout my time at UF as a culmination of the International Scholars Program. Feel free to browse through it to learn more about my undergraduate years.

Having a Peruvian mom and South African dad I have developed a bit of a travel bug. Ever since I was little I have loved language learning and travel. I hope my studies take me far not just in a personal development sense, but also to new places all over the world.
There is just so much to see!
Hobbies
Lately I have become an avid reader; no matter the genre, if the synopsis is intriguing I am always willing to give a novel a chance. I am slowly making my way through the 4 Chinese classic novels, and plan to hit the 1001 Books You Should Read Before You Die soon!
In addition to reading, I enjoy exercising and staying active. If you don't catch me reading a book in between study sessions, I will be trying out a new fitness class at the rec center on campus!
