FinalistBio
I possess a desire to explore the sciences in the medical field. My immediate goal is to gain a solid foundation in biology, explore my academic strengths, and further my education in a specific branch of medicine. My patient and empathetic nature are due to my familial experience with individuals living with disabilities. This lived experience has allowed me a deeper understanding of how to communicate with people. My experiences also attribute to the advocacy with which I have had the privilege to become introduced to and am currently active with. I have a personal interest in the advancement of both physical and mental health for all. I am passionate about education and research on how biological processes can be enhanced through science. My intention to further medical advancements made by previous scientists that held a personal stake in the health and happiness of humankind is what makes me a candidate for your consideration.

Pettable Pet Lovers Scholarship
These are my beautiful girls, Rosie and Isabella. Rosie is a 13-year-old chihuahua and Isabella is a 9-year-old tuxedo cat. The duo enjoy each other’s company as paradoxical that may sound. They prefer to spend their free time sunbathing and frolicking in the yard. The photos I have chosen perfectly capture my infatuation with them as well as their love for the camera. (BTW, Rosie loved the peanut butter cupcakes featured on @join.pettable.)
