Summary
I have aspired to become a physician, like my parents, uncles, and grandfather, for as long as I can remember. I began my journey as a home-schooled elementary student, which instilled goal-oriented hard work, ambition, and perseverance in me as a young child. My determination to solve puzzles with creative solutions has developed my curiosity and critical thinking as a student and a community leader today. I hope to apply this to my future career by using my deduction skills and dedicated efforts for sustainable solutions. Helping people has always been my ultimate passion and I have demonstrated this through fundraising for disaster relief, tutoring students, and volunteering in my community. Once I am a doctor, I will prioritize the beneficence of the patient first and foremost, through my open-minded nature and empathetic receptiveness.
