Riley is currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Cell and Molecular Biology at San Diego State University. Having experienced difficult skin herself, she developed an early interest in dermatology and a passion for understanding skin health. In 2022, she began interning with Dr. Rich and quickly fell in love with both the profession and the team. Outside of the office, Riley has a lifelong passion for dance. She began dancing at the age of two and currently performs at the collegiate level for San Diego State University. Most recently, her team earned top-five finishes in both of their routines at the UDA Nationals competition in Orlando, Florida. When she’s not studying, working, or dancing, Riley enjoys spending quiet evenings at home with her family and her one-eyed dog, Lucy.
