Hi, I am Jorden Bostic! A passionate tennis player, a movie lover, an avid photographer, and someone who loves nature. I’m the oldest of five, which is a true joy and has largely contributed to the caring person that I am today. I am Christian, and my beliefs and morals shape my values and my calling in life.
I am a rising sophomore Mercer University, majoring in biology with minors in global health studies and chemistry. Since childhood, I have been driven by a deep passion for medicine, with the ultimate goal of becoming a general surgeon. Within my future career, I am eager to contribute to the healthcare industry and address disparities in marginalized and rural communities within the U.S. and abroad.
Beyond my academic pursuits, I am actively involved in leadership, mentorship, and community service initiatives,where I strive to make a meaningful impact both in and outside the classroom.
