“Tell me about yourself.”
I am a Global and Public Health Sciences major on a pre-med track. I grew up in Astoria, OR, a small town on the north coast. So far at Cornell, I have felt welcomed by people in the College of Human Ecology, and I am excited to meet new people as a Career Assistant! I am looking forward to expanding my knowledge of the College of Human Ecology and supporting my peers on their Career Exploration journeys!
Where do you see yourself in the future?
In the future, I plan to pursue a career in healthcare. I am currently on a pre-med track, but I am also interested in epidemiology and public health research. In my future career, I want to work internationally in communities that lack access to healthcare resources where I can have a positive impact. I am excited to continue exploring my future career goals alongside others at the CEC.
What are you involved in on campus?
On campus, I am involved in the Cornell PATCH (pre-health organization), Cornell Circle K (community service club), and Cornell Running Club!
What do you like to do in your free time?
In my free time, I enjoy running, going to the gym, doing art, hanging out with my friends, and spending time outside.
