Career goal:
As of now, I am very interested in reconstructive plastic surgery, either by becoming a surgeon myself or working in the biotechnology industry to develop newer and safer surgical devices and techniques.
Reconstructive surgery can instantly transform the lives of many people, like burn victims or children born with cleft palates, and it would be so emotionally fulfilling to be a vital part of that transformation.

The educator that has impacted me the most has been Ms. Debbie Pettibone. Not only has she been so encouraging and compassionate to me in the past three years that I have been her student, but her passion for the Spanish language has made me recognize its beauty and has granted me a new way of interacting with the world.
