About

My name is Katie Napier, and I'm a freshman at The Ohio State University. I am studying biology with a specialization in forensic biology, and a minor in music. I have a passion for science and medicine, and hope to combine those interests into a career path I love. Before coming to Ohio State, I started a hammock club. This organization is focused on bringing together a diverse group of students who share a common interest. The group is centered around community service and inclusion. Since arriving at Ohio State, I have gotten involved with: R-Lead, OWL, Raney Activities and Programming, and RHAC. R-Lead is a program centered around developing leadership skills. OWL is a program for being an advocate for other students and helping them move in. I am the sustainability chair of Raney Activities and Programming. I am in charge of planning events for my dorm and ensuring sustainable practices while doing so. RHAC is a program that coordinates events between dorms, and also is the organization where the funds are received for programs within the dorms.

Graduate school interests

After completing my undergraduate degree at Ohio State, I hope to pursue a graduate degree at Ohio State, or apply for dental school at Ohio State.

In my free time, I enjoy playing music. I have learned six instruments, and love to participate in the bands on campus. I hope to audition for the marching band next year. I also enjoy volunteering in my free time, and plan to go on a Buck-I-Serv mission trip this May.
