Bio

I am a high school senior deeply committed to pursuing a career in oncology, driven by both scientific curiosity and a passion for patient care. With a 4.0 unweighted GPA and 14 AP classes. I’ve challenged myself academically while also completing a rigorous four-year biotechnology program, culminating in BACE certification. My dedication to medicine has been shaped by over 350 hours of clinical shadowing across primary care, cardiology, and podiatry, along with specialized training in emergency medicine, dermatology, neurology, and cardiology through a competitive six-week medical camp. Outside the clinic, I serve as the chief editor of my school newspaper and have earned awards for poetry and creative writing—an outlet that sharpens my empathy and voice. I’ve also volunteered 100+ hours at food co-op , reflecting my belief that healthcare begins with equity and access. Whether conducting research, advocating through writing, or listening to a patient’s story, I approach every opportunity with discipline, compassion, and a desire to heal.
