Bio

Hi there! My name is Merom Arthur, and I am a Ghanaian American from Northern Virginia. I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Human Health and a minor in Film and Media from Emory University. I am set to begin my Master of Science in Media, Medicine, and Health program at Harvard Medical School, this Fall 2026. I have aspirations of being a physician-scientist with involvement in health consulting in tech, media, and business spaces. In my free time, I play volleyball competitively, sing in gospel choirs, serve in my church, engage in media production, and spend time with my family and friends.
