Aryanna Jones

Graduate Student Fellow

Delaware State University

Applied Chemistry

Born and raised in the heart of Cleveland, Ohio, I grew up surrounded by the bustling energy of urban life and the quiet charm of the Midwest. From a young age, I developed a curiosity about the world around me and finding my role in it. This curiosity began with a B.S. in biology from the University of Charleston (WV) and led me to pursue a Masters in chemistry at Delaware State University. I am currently immersed in exploring the intricacies of molecular compounds and soft materials. My studies not only fuel my passion for scientific discovery but also align with my growing interest in environmental science. I am currently working on a hydrophilic medium that can remediate heavy metals and toxins from water. Some hobbies of mine include coaching Women’s lacrosse, shopping, and enjoying the outdoors. I am looking forward to where my studies will take me as a Delaware Space Grant Fellow this upcoming year.
