About

My name is Olivia Scarborough. I am a 20 year old female from Massachusetts with a passion for neuroscience and medicine. I am currently a Junior at Worcester state university working toward an LS bachelors degree in Biology with a premed focus, and working full time as a chief medical scribe. I intend to graduate in May 2023 and then go on to medical school where I hope to eventually become a doctor of neuropsychiatry. I am considering working in pediatric medicine but am not fully decided yet. Prior to becoming a student at Worcester state, I was a high school student enrolled in full time college through an early college program where I earned my high school diploma, and associates degree. Overall I want to spend the time I have in my life working hard, doing all that I do well, and making the world better for those around me. I hope to do this in the medical field one day.
