About
My name is Kaleb Gottfredson, and I attend Academy of the Canyons Middle Collage High School as a senior in Santa Clarita. I have a deep passion for academic studies and am always striving to grow both intellectually and personally. I'm especially drawn to the subjects of biology and chemistry, hoping to one day become a Clinical Laboratory Scientist in the future. Come fall, I will be enrolled as a Biology undergraduate at UCLA.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
I plan to pursue a career as a clinical laboratory scientist. I’m fascinated by the role laboratory science plays in diagnosing and treating disease, and I want to be part of the behind-the-scenes work that helps save lives. This path combines my love for science with my desire to make a real impact in healthcare.
- Graduate school interests
Looking ahead, I intend to earn a Master of Science in Clinical Laboratory Science. Graduate school will give me the advanced knowledge and training I need to excel in the field and open the door to leadership roles in laboratory medicine. I feel as if this is an important step toward reaching my full potential within this career.
- Outside the classroom
Rock Climbing -
My experience with rock climbing has been quite extensive. I visit our local climbing gym about three times per week and am currently looking to compete sometime next year. Through this, I have not only gained valuable insights on the nature of perseverance and problem solving, but have also demonstrated leadership through teaching friends as well. Bass Guitar -
My dad has always been pretty good with the Bass so it was only natural that I picked it up sooner or later. Through this, I came to create my own band with friends from other schools in our distract and take the lead on writing most of our songs. 3D Modeling - I’ve been 3D modeling for over three years and have contributed to a variety of indie projects. As of late I've taken a hiatus to focus on school but plan to return to this hobby after summer.

Volunteering

The Children's Hunger Fund is a non-profit organization stationed in LA with the goal to Alleviate child hunger and poverty. I have participated in volunteering within this organization through my church, which tends to partner with them often. I have worked in their warehouse on multiple occasions, both packing and boxing food during sessions to be shipped out at a later date.
