FinalistBio
I am an award-winning ballet dancer and aspiring physician specializing in radiology. Trained at the Houston Ballet Academy and Utah Ballet Summer Intensive on full merit scholarship, I have spent nearly a decade learning that precision and presence matter as much in medicine as they do on stage. Through the Nursing pathway at Collierville High School, the Emergency Medical Response Camp at Auburn University, and leadership roles in the African American Student Union and St. Jude Leadership Society, I am building toward one goal: becoming a physician who sees the person, not just the patient. I have raised funds for dancer scholarships, served communities across Memphis, and received the Mayor Lee Harris Rising Star Award. Everything I do comes back to one belief: that showing up fully for someone can change what they believe is possible for themselves.
