Rachel Washburn, Health and Exercise Science

Rachel has taken her dynamic interdisciplinary interests and transformed them into impactful action! Her passion for the science of human aging has led her to pursue a Gerontology minor, focus her Honors thesis on promoting healthy aging, and play a crucial role as a research assistant on a federally funded initiative that supports grandparents raising grandchildren. Rachel is the President of the CSU Gerontology Club, where she has initiated numerous innovative initiatives, greatly enriching education on aging and fostering important intergenerational relationships among students and community members. Rachel’s commitment to excellence extends beyond academia – she volunteers extensively – one notable activity is her initiative to enhance older adults’ technological literacy. Her multifaceted leadership, dedication to community service, and academic achievement position her for continued success as she pursues her Occupational Therapy Doctorate at CSU.

Valerie Bortolutti was awarded the 2024 CHHS Research Day Poster Show Undergraduate Research and Creativity – Top Honors.
