My Future Plan and Career Statement:
My Future Plan and Career Statement:
In the fall of 2026 I will attend Colorado Mesa University on a pre-med track majoring in Biology. I hope that after completing some core classes, after two years, i can transfer to a school where I can complete a bachelor's degree in neuroscience. During those four years I will also be completing research, community service, and patient care hours to further strengthen my application for a Medical Doctor School.
My overall career goal is to be a Medical Doctor specializing in neurology. A Neurologist. This goal stems from the passion I have of creating empowering communities for individuals who struggle with neurological conditions.
