Hobbies and Interests

I am extremely interested in the development of drugs for cancer, autoimmune disorders and neurological disorders. I will further my education by doing research in one of these field, I am just not sure which one yet. In my free time I like to hangout with friends and watch football games. Catching up with friends really gives me the mental break I need sometimes. I also really enjoy going to the gym to stay healthy.
