What advice would you give to a first- or second-year prehealth student athlete?

You don't have to have your entire pre-health path figured out on day 1! There are tons of amazing resources through HPA and beyond to walk you through the stages and make sure you are where you should be. Stay really on top of emailing with different resources and professors/TAs, which will help sort out many of the problems you might face in your first and second years. Finally, definitely take time to relax and enjoy Princeton!! It is not a race to reach the finish line, there are so many great experiences on campus that you should definitely take part in to fully enjoy your four years here.

Summer 2024 planned activities: I will be working in clinical research and shadowing in Boston Children's Hospital, the Department of Otolaryngology and Communication Enhancement. I will also be involved in Princeton's Compassionate Medicine Fellowship!

Last book you read for fun: One of Us is Lying by Karen McManus
