Bio

I am an undergraduate student at Drexel University, on the pre-health track. I am currently a Clinical Research Lab Assistant at MAClab (Memory and Concepts Lab) in the Psychology and Brain Sciences Department at Drexel University, focusing on cognitive processes and memory studies. I am also a Clinical Research Assistant in the Orthopedic Surgery Department at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, assisting with ongoing studies in the Sports Medicine subspecialty. I have completed my co-op in the Orthopedic Surgery Department at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, specializing in Sports Medicine. During my time, I worked alongside multiple Orthopedic surgeons in their clinics and gained exposure to the healthcare environment. Through clinical observation, I developed skills in patient assessment, preoperative and postoperative care, and health policy. My responsibilities also entailed in assisting multiple clinical research studies involving sports-related injuries. This experience enhanced my understanding of orthopedic surgery and the importance of a holistic approach to patient care. As a pre-health student, my goal is to leverage my educational background and practical experiences to contribute meaningfully to the medical field. I am eager to connect with professionals and explore opportunities that align with my passion for advancing healthcare and improving patient outcomes.
