PROFILE
I am an undergraduate student at the
University of Kentucky, majoring in Biology
with a focus in Pre-Medicine. I accomplished
several outstanding academic achievements
throughout high school and remained heavily
involved in numerous activities including Beta
Club, National Honor Society, and the varsity
tennis team. During my junior and senior
years in high school, I was simultaneously
enrolled in Owensboro Community & Technical
College (OCTC) through the Early College
Program. While attending OCTC, I became
involved in the Student Government
Association (Vice President) as well as Phi
Theta Kappa Honor Society (Vice President of
Scholarship). I earned my Associate's Degree
with Honors through the Hager Scholarship
Program before earning with my high school
Honors Diploma. My goal is to complete a
Bachelor's degree, followed by post-graduate
work, and establish a career in the medical
field.
