FinalistBio
Hello! My name is Elizabeth, and I am a first year student at the University of Virginia, pursuing a B.S.Ed in Kinesiology with a pre med concentration. I am currently a clarinetist in the Cavalier Marching Band and a fellow in UVA's Karsh Institute of Democracy. My ultimate goal is to become a pediatric emergency or adolescent medicine physician and travel with UNICEF or Doctors Without Borders.
I excel in many areas, including academics, leadership, music, and foreign languages. I am currently pursuing conversational fluency in Spanish, as well as basic skills in Russian and Arabic. I also hold a BLS certification with the intent of obtaining my EMT certification soon.
