I’m in my early 20s and recently graduated with a BS in biology and will be going to medical school starting in the summer of 2015. I hope to be a general practitioner and work with underserved populations. I also have a strong interest in molecular biology and particularly epigenetics and disease-so maybe I’ll do research there. I would like to see more acceptance and continuing equality in terms of women in the sciences and in medicine.

For fun I like to write fiction, hike, and spend time with friends. Pretty typical.

Let’s see things that make me a “Dangerous”  or “tough” woman? I’m proficient with a bow having taught archery for two years. I’m also better than average at rockclimbing and taught it for a summer in high school. I’ve also had a lot experience with horseback riding and dated a survivalist who taught me quite a lot. I’ve had a lot of training with critical thinking under pressure (specifically in time limited situations) through my colleges pre-medical and disaster action programs.I speak fluent English and Spanish and know some conversational Nepali from teaching english to political refugees in my city. I was raised by a single mother who taught me to be independent and tenacious, and continues to be a massive influence in my life. She’s the sort of woman who built her  solid foundations on rock bottom and reminds me what it is to live fully.

So I think that’s it for now. I hope you think I’m a good match. :)
