About
My name is Chiemerie Azubuogu, I am from Nigeria. I have been in the United States since August 2013 and I have always appreciated the opportunity afforded to me to be able to work towards my goal. My goal is to make a major breakthrough in cancer research and to bring such breakthrough to those who cannot afford it. Also I want to create a cancer awareness campaign in most African countries and administer care to cancer patients that have no means of proper care. I am currently a student at Los Angeles Southwest College and will be transferring to University of California San Diego in Fall 2017, where I got admitted into the Bioengineering: Biotechnology major.
