Brief Profile:
- 3 years of clinical research (with a publication), evaluating advances in technology and their effects on medical practices; current project with information technology and the sharing of electronic medical records - 2 semesters of shadowing: one with pediatric rehab, and the other with geriatrics - lots of experiences in volunteering, mentoring, and working with kids - interests in creative writing and helping people with developmental disabilities
Overall, nothing too special, but hopefully enough to get me through this crazy application process...
