Summary
I am a hardworking and meticulous recent graduate with a passion for knowledge in the sciences. Some of the areas of curriculum that interest me the most are immunology and developmental biology. I am intrigued by the idea of research in subjects like the causes of congenital heart defects in children and the topic of cancer biology. My goal is to pursue further education to help me in reaching my dream of becoming a doctor and providing these services to those in my community.
