Aspiring medical professional with a strong background in biological sciences.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated and passionate individual pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences from the University of Pittsburgh, complemented by minors in chemistry and the history of philosophy and science. My academic journey has been marked by excellence, as evidenced by my placement on the Dean's List and my participation in advanced courses such as Astrophysics and Chemistry at Allegheny College.
In addition to my academic achievements, I have gained valuable hands-on experience as a Medical Assistant at Advanced and Cosmetic Dermatology and Elevation Medical Weight Loss. My role as a peer tutor and teaching assistant at the University of Pittsburgh has honed my communication skills and deepened my understanding of complex biological concepts. I am also actively involved in volunteer work, including my current position at the Crisis Hotline, where I provide support to those in need.
