I am a first-generation Columbia College student majoring in Medical Humanities with plans to attend medical school in the future. My experience at Columbia has been marked by the amazing education and opportunities I received along with the amazing friends and professors I got to meet. This place and the people I fostered amazing connections with will always bring me joy in my nostalgia. I would not be here without the entire team of my family back home that constantly supported my academic pursuits, I love you all so much.
