Brief Profile:
I did a lot of singing in college - in choirs and leads in a couple of shows. I also worked for my residential college, was a peer health educator, and did some research at the NIH. I was in Phi Alpha Theta, the history honor society (for History of Science/Medicine) and received distinction in that major.
