Pursing a career as a medical doctor is an opportunity for me to mentor youth in underserved populations. As a child, I was raised in the low income, urban community of Roxbury, MA. Although not as notorious today, the neighborhood had garnered negative attention for its high crime rates. My mother emigrated from Haiti and raised me as a single parent.

I fell in love with the beauty of the Horseshoe and greatly appreciated the generosity and politeness of the people I met. I want to inspire prospective students to fall in love with USC as I did.

When we arrived in the United States, my father enrolled me in a Catholic school, where he believed I would receive the best education. I am now the first person in my family to attend to college. After elementary school, I knew I wanted to continue my educational journey in a private Catholic high school, but I knew the expenses would be a problem. I maintained being a top student and looked for different options to get to where I wanted to be. To obtain this dream, which always seemed unreachable for my family, I worked hard with

In our lives, we have to make important choices, and sometimes our choices determine our happiness or sadness. As a Filipino, our families tell us to do well in school and to not make bad choices because they want us to be successful and to have ethical morals. Growing up as a Catholic, I was taught to be obedient and respectful to my family which has shaped who I am today. Yet, I too made some mistakes, and I learned from the consequences. From my failures, I learned to not belittle myself, but to grow.
