I was a premed major for most of my college career. I fell in love with teaching during my gap year prepping for my MCAT. As the son of a doctor who has seen the impact medicine can have on someone's life, I would say the only thing that has come close to having the same impact is teaching and seeing my students succeed and grow. This growth is my opinion, is done both academically and personally. Thank you for your time and consideration
