About Emmy

Hello! My name is Emmy and I am planning on applying to medical school. I have 6 years of research experiences, 3 years of volunteer experiences at a hospital, and 4 years of volunteer experiences at a homeless shelter. During my volunteering, I encountered many patients of all ages, particularly for the elderly. I am patient, attentive, compassionate, and an efficient learner. I want to become a caregiver because I want to have one-on-one interactions with patients. In addition, I would like to learn, communicate, and grow as a person. As a caregiver, I believe I will become a better doctor in the future and I cannot wait to embark on this medical journey.
