I am currently completing my Junior year at Wake Forest University, majoring in psychology and targeting medical school. I have been drawn to a career in medicine via a passion for serving the community, first in my hometown of Baltimore and now in Winston-Salem. I have a love of science and meeting new people, have been exposed to compelling role models, and now seek a life of service through medicine.
