I am a premedical student that aspires to aid the underserved populations as a physician in the future. My upbringing, clinical, community service, research, and tutoring experiences have made me compassionate, sympathetic, perseverant, hard working, and open minded. Moreover, I try to not only stay mentally fit by spending time daily to self-reflect and meditate, but also exercise at least an hour everyday to stay physically fit. Furthermore, I am passionate about helping others and find pleasure in seeing others thrive.
