Hi! My name is Alexia Armendariz-Baca, I am a San Diego native and have my Bachelor of Science in Marine Biology from UC San Diego. I joined the lab as a Lab Assistant II in March 2023. My responsibilities include raising our juvenile transgenic sea urchins into adults, managing algal and diatom quality control, and actively supporting any ongoing experiments throughout the lab. I love working with aquatic animals and sustaining a lab-grown ecosystem while planning and managing projects to enhance our lab’s mission. I am passionate about marine life and environmental conservation.

In my free time I’m going to yoga classes and running on the beach!
