About
Brooklyn student with a passion for understanding how science can improve lives — from the lab bench to the emergency room. As part of the Medical Science Program at Midwood High School at Brooklyn College, coursework in chemistry, biology, and psychology sparked a lasting curiosity about the human body and the systems that sustain it.
That curiosity has grown into hands-on experience: conducting plant science research with a Syracuse University professor, volunteering in the Maimonides Emergency Department, and representing Brooklyn South students on the Superintendent's Youth Leadership Council. Outside the classroom, time goes to Model UN debates, Science Olympiad builds, track practice, and the lighting booth at school arts festivals.
Every experience points toward the same goal — a future in medicine grounded in research, compassion, and real impact.

Multiple seasons as an active member of the Midwood High School track and field team, training two to three times a week alongside a full AP course load. Every practice is a lesson in discipline, consistency, and pushing past limits — qualities that carry from the track into the classroom, the lab, and the emergency room.
Running with the team has also built strong friendships and a deep respect for shared effort toward a common goal.
