About Me

About Me

I am a Pre-Medical sophomore at Rutgers University-New Brunswick interested in getting to know more about others’ journey to medical school. I am pursuing a major in Cell Biology and Neuroscience and find neuropsychology particularly interesting. In addition, I am passionate about highlighting the importance of mental health and learning more about it. I enjoy working on community service projects and meeting new people with a wide range of interests.

Special Interests and Hobbies

I enjoy playing and listening to music, playing sports, and spending time with my family. Recently, I have been spending most of my free time learning guitar, virtually working out with friends, and tutoring children in my community.
