About
My name is Lauren Watts. I live in Plano, Texas, where I attend Plano East Senior High and Collin College as a dual college credit student. I am a student at the Health Sciences Academy. During high school, I have earned my associate degree in Applied Science and my CNA Certification. When COVID doesn't interfere, I enjoy volunteering at the SPCA and various senior rehabilitation and retirement facilities. I love riding horses and teaching equestrian skills to younger children.
I am entering Baylor in the Fall of 2021 as a freshman. I will be pursuing a bachelor's degree in Health Sciences to complete my pre-med qualifications. After undergraduate school, I plan to transfer to RICE where I will study to become a Doctor of Obstetrician and Gynecology.
