Biography
My project was driven by my continuous interest in medicine and started out with my curiosity. Having the dream of becoming a physician, I chose to apply my dedication to such topics. Volunteering at local hospitals, helping with different fundraisers and foundations, I hope to apply myself to the field, professionally, one day. For the moment, I am persevering at school, where I maintain a high ranking on the principal's honour roll and have received a few bursaries and some humbling awards. This project, along with my day-to-day participation in schoolwork is keeping me engaged to my ultimate goal.
