"I volunteered in the local teaching hospital three days a week in the Delivery Suite and NICU. In the Delivery Ward I comforted mothers in labor and helped care for the new born babies in the ward. In the NICU I took vitals, fed, dressed, and burped the babies. The other two days of the week I worked in two local leprosy camps dressing wounds and performing basic health screens. It was an great opportunity to gain hands-on experience in the medical field while also learning about healthcare in the developing country."

"I worked closely with faculty and staff in the Teleneurology Program to develop C3FIT, a pragmatic randomized stroke trial funded by PCORI, and a prehospital feasibility study to link ambulance personnel to experts in stroke care using technology funded by the USDA Telemedicine Program. My primary roles included assisting with grant preparation, shadowing clinicians, and developing healthcare research projects and programmatic initiatives. As a research intern, I received invaluable exposure to various medical specialties and, as a result, now plan to pursue a career as a physician’s assistant."
