Summary

I'm a third year student currently majoring in Biology with a goal of becoming a doctor. I'm a hardworker when it comes to academics, but also strive to have a good balance with other activities. I have a deep interest in the sciences and have been involved in some research to further my understanding of the practical sciences as well as being involved in some fascinating research in the cardiology field. Another goal of mine is to memorize the quran, which I hope to finish sometime in the near future.
