My current career goals are centered around my food allergies. I am severely allergic to eggs, and developed a very good relationship with my allergist when I was a kid. My goal is to go to medical school to become a doctor of pediatric allergy and immunology. I am passionate about helping kids who are like me to be as comfortable and confident in their food allergies as possible. I have wanted to do something related to my allergies since I was ten years old, so I am very sure of this decision.Â
Being a part of an internship site that is centered around pediatrics has solidified my decision to pursue a career in pediatric allergy. This summer, I plan to look for another internship or job on campus that will prepare me even more for my future career. Because of my past experiences and my experience at this internship site, I feel very confident in using my self-knowledge and preferences to make career-related decisions.
