Graduate and Professional Programs
Future Education
This year I have applied to Medical School programs at Western, UBC, Queens, Dalhousie, TMU, and Alberta. I interviewed at Western Med and hope to begin school there in September 2025. After Medical School I hope to practice in primary care, particularly in my hometown of Windsor, which faces a primary care shortage. In addition, I applied to masters programs to gain skills that would be valuable in a career in medicine, or a career in Healthcare. I was accepted into the MPH program at Western and the Translational Health Science program at UWindsor.
