Bio

I am an incoming Biology student at Villanova University with conditional acceptance to the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine through Penn Dental Medicine’s Bio-Dental Consortial Program. My interests lie at the intersection of science, patient care, and community service. I am a nationally certified EMT and have completed more than 500 hours of clinical volunteering at a dental practice, where I supported patient intake, sterilization, documentation, and treatment preparation. I have also explored oncology through the University of Pennsylvania and American Cancer Society’s Summer Health Experience in Oncology and completed college-level psychology coursework through Penn’s Young Scholars Program. At Central High School, I graduated with a 4.18 weighted GPA, a 1510 SAT score, an International Baccalaureate Diploma, and the Simon Gratz English Prize. Beyond academics, I led health and service initiatives as President of the Central Red Cross Club, co-founded Medicine4Youth, mentored younger students through the Bridge Leadership Program, and competed as a fencer. I hope to continue developing the scientific knowledge, clinical judgment, and compassion necessary to serve patients meaningfully through dentistry.
