Academy of Finance
I became a member of the Academy of Finance: the magnet program at Overlea High which focuses in business as a major. I never found business practices interesting until being introduced to the program and becoming a member. I now know that business practices will be highly beneficial when dealing with any promising career.

National Youth Leadership Forum on
Medicine I was accepted into the National Youth Leadership Forum on Medicine as a summer studies program at Emory University in 2007. While at the program, I had the privilege to attend many lectures and speeches by medical students and resident physicians, watch several demonstrations of actual surgeries, and participate in numerous surgical exercises. This provided rich academic and practical depth in my thought and decision making process.
