My name is Eliane de Jong, and I’m a Biology major on a pre-med track in the University Honors Program. I’ve known since middle school that I want to be a surgeon, and I believe that I will accomplish my goals with enough motivation and drive to succeed. My main goal for the next four years is to work towards being accepted into The Ohio State University College of Medicine. Along with my passion for medicine, I’m also passionate about music. I’ve taken piano lessons since kindergarten and plan on continuing throughout college and medical school. I believe that passion for medicine, my ambitious nature with regards to my goals, and my love of music make me unique and shape my personality.
