Summary
My name is Laylah Jackson, and I am currently a freshman at Purdue University, studying Biomedical Health Sciences on the pre-med track. I am currently committed to pursuing my degree in Health and Human Sciences, and I strive to become a pediatrician after graduate school. I am highly committed to organizations related to my major; however, I hope to gain as much clinical shadowing experience as possible throughout the summer to further clarify my desired pre-health career path.
