Hey there! My name is Alexandra Coyne, and I am a first year student at the Ohio State University. Currently, I am enrolled in the College of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences as a Health Science major. My goal is to go to graduate school to receive at least a Masters degree in Occupational Therapy and work with children who have disabilities! I am very involved at Ohio State, and I absolutely love it here. Some of the things I’m involved in include the Mount Leadership Scholars Society, the Morrill Scholarship program, Pre-PT/Pre-OT club, and I hope to rush a medical sorority in the spring.
I also do a lot of other extracurriculars such as volunteering through the Wishing Well, Miracle League, many nursing homes, and I was president of a club in high school that donated baked goods to children in inner city Columbus schools.
It is because of my heavy involvement with volunteering that I decided to pursue a degree where I can help children with disabilities. My passion is to help others in general, so I am so excited to find more communities to join that will allow me to be an active participant in service.
