G.O.A.L.S.

As a scholars student, I plan to pursue my future and career goals within leadership, academics, and helping out whenever I find an opportunity. I am currently a chemical engineering student. As of now, I am pre med and looking to pursue a career in medicine. I chose the path of engineering because I love the aspect of combining chemistry and engineering and pushing myself to do the best that I can. Over the time of college, I look forward to getting involved in some student organizations that will help expand my learning experience while at The Ohio State University. Also, I would like to get involved in a volunteering organization that I can attend regularly. What I am really excited about is starting research. I am really excited and motivated to be the best thatI can be and to give it 100% effort as I pursue my dreams as a Buckeye.

I look to doing everything I can in each of the G.O.A.L.S. sections as a scholars student. I want to make a difference in life on campus. I am not sure how I would go by that or what I want to change but it is something that I am striving for. Something that I have learned to be a lot better at is finding answers to solutions when they take some sort of digging to attain. I like to solve puzzles so it is very easy for me to go out of my way to find something out. Academically, I want to push myself to do the best that I can. I want to identify my strengths and weaknesses as a student then work on them in order to become more well rounded. Over the past couple years, I have pushed myself to become more vocal. I used to be shy and I still am a little. It is important for me to become a role model and leader for anyone that is looking for guidance or a friend. I feel that having the ability to be a leader is a vital skill that can open an infinite amount of doors in the future. I started volunteering when I was a freshman in high school. I originally did it to build my resume but I soon found that I loved the experiences gained from it. I volunteered at Riverside Methodist Hospital in Columbus for a year in 2016 and 2017. I learned a lot about patient care and simple communication skills. I am definitely more open and communicative because of it. I would like to expand my roles in service engagement and really make a difference in peoples’ lives.
