During high school I performed vaccine research at UK with post-doc scholars and PhD students - I was the only high school student there and I learned that I thrive in research labs!
At the end of the day, the only thing I want to do is give back to the world around me. I love research because I know what I'm doing will eventually impact thousands of lives. I want to become an ophthalmologist in order to give the gift of sight back to those who have lost it.
