Goals and interests

Career goal

My intended job path is to become a General Dentist, providing comprehensive oral healthcare with compassion and expertise, promoting overall dental health and creating positive impacts on my patients' lives.

Graduate school interests

My grad school interest lies in attending dental school. I am eager to gain advanced knowledge and hands-on experience in dentistry, focusing on compassionate patient care and making a positive impact on oral health. Becoming a dentist aligns with my passion to serve the community and create confident smiles for people of all backgrounds.

Outside the classroom

I find joy in spending time outdoors, hiking amidst the beauty of nature and going on longboarding adventures that provide a sense of freedom and thrill. I also immerse myself in various creative pursuits. Working with my hands brings me a deep sense of satisfaction, and I channel my creativity by using computer software to design and create files for my 3D printer, which allows me to bring my ideas to life in tangible forms. My passion for health and well-being drives me to constantly learn and explore. I enjoy studying about health-related topics and making positive lifestyle changes, incorporating regular workouts and swimming into my routine to stay active and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
