WELCOME TO MY PORTFOLIO!
Hello!
My name is Zachary Hirshorn, I am a 3rd year undergraduate student attending Stony Brook University. I am currently studying biology (Pre-med) in hopes of one day reaching my dreams of working in the health care field. For as long as I could remember, helping others was always a rewarding feeling for me, which in turn, gave me a sense of fulfillment. Coming from a family of doctors, the notion of helping others parallels the fundamental principles that my family set for me growing up. Through this lens, I am more than driven to make this essential family principle into a career path, where I can share my dedication for helping others through medicine.
Before attending Stony Brook University, NY, I attended high school at James Caldwell, NJ, where I found my passions for sports and education. In the classroom, I found that education gave me a purpose to work with others and to solve real-world issues that society faces. This purpose became a want to further my knowledge and attend a higher education institution such as Stony Brook University. In addition, high school gave me the ability to play team sports such as baseball. In baseball, I became the starting varsity catcher my sophomore season and found many of my life-long friends as well. Sports have always been an important hobby in my life, and has helped me connect with my twin brother Dylan as well. Just like I did in education, I furthered my career in sports by playing club baseball at Stony Brook University which was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Not only do I still play the game I love, but more importantly, I participate in a team sport that represents the school that is helping shape my future.
