Bio

Motivated by a deep passion for medicine, I am originally from Haiti, studying and aspiring to become a physician. My journey began in a country where access to emergency services is scant and healthcare inequities are part of everyday life. It was watching loved ones lose their lives out of lack of timely care that triggered my desire to pursue a career in medicine. Back in the United States, a new set of challenges awaited me. From learning the nuances of the English language all by myself to availing every opportunity presented by the school, but hardwork always pays off and I was able to graduate 10% of my high school with a 4.0 with a certification in medical assisting at the age of 16. Beyond academics, I am committed to serving my community. In college, I hope to continue building a positive atmosphere, staying involved in my community, and improving my skills. My path thus far has carved a strong but gentle soul-one day destined to take on the profession of a doctor, lending sure and kind service when and where it is needed. With every step forward, I am committed to a vision of available and fair health and a brighter future for communities like my own that have struggled in getting the support they need. :)
