I always knew I wanted to spend my career helping others. I grew up wanting to pursue anything and everything from becoming a UN ambassador to wanting to cure cancer. The allure of the opportunity to help advance the field of medicine is what led me to double major in biomedical engineering and biochemistry at Arizona State University. Though I entered college still unsure of how I wanted to help people, I knew that having the opportunity to problem solve through engineering would be an amazing way to learn about myself and how I can best contribute to the field of medicine.
