About
I am currently a high school senior at Plainfield South High School in Plainfield, Illinois. I plan to pursue an undergraduate degree in public health on the Pre- Medicine track at Loyola University Chicago. I have always dreamed of being a doctor since I was a little girl and now the motivation has become unstoppable now that I am heading into college.
Goals and interests
- Career goal
After pursuing pre-medicine in my undergraduate, I intend to proceed to medical school to pursue a career in anesthesiology.
- Outside the classroom
I have a variety of hobbies that I love to do when I have free time. I love to do my nails. Being able to express myself through many different colors and have a confidence boost wearing nails is such a phenomenal feeling. On the other hand, I enjoy cleaning and organizing a lot. It is very calming for me and gives me a chance to focus on one thing at a time when life can become chaotic. Reading non-fiction books and novels is my favorite way to pass time. Specifically true crime and medicine-related books are my go-to's. No matter how many medicine or non-fiction books I read, I always find something new to learn. Lastly, I love working out. Not only is it medically proven to have an exponential amount of benefits, but there is also such a fulfilling mental health aspect that comes with consistently working out.

During this summer job at a pediatric dental office, I would help sterlize instruments and keep the backroom clean and organized. I also processed x-rays and cleaned rooms in between patients. The best part of my job was being able to make the dentist a fun experience for children.
