Summary
As an enthusiastic and dedicated medical student, I am eager to further enrich my clinical experience through my rotational clerkships. Having excelled with my medical curriculum, I bring hands-on clinical skills developed during core rotation hours, including internal medicine and surgery, coupled with a strong commitment to patient care. I have developed a great interest in emergency medicine and I am eager to learn how to improve my critical thinking skills in a fast-paced environment and to be the first encounter with a patient as they arrive to the hospital. I am dedicated to leverage my skills, dedication, and academic achievements to make meaningful contributions during elective rotations and further advance my medical education.
