About Me
My name is Duncan DiGiacomo and I was born and raised in the city of Canfield, Ohio. From a very early age, I have always strived to achieve good grades in school. Keeping a high standard for grades and many years of hard work in order to do so is what gave me the opportunity to continue my education here at The Ohio State University.
In first grade at the age of 7, I broke my arm for the first time on the playground at school. I had gotten an x-ray on my arm and when the doctor showed me the results, I was fascinated by everything I saw. This is what sparked my interest in becoming a radiologist, and throughout my years in high school I took classes such as anatomy and physiology which furthered my interest in pursuing this profession.
I plan on graduating OSU with a major in health sciences and a minor in biology, and continuing my education through medical school in hopes of becoming a radiologist in the future. I am excited to see where my education will lead me and very proud to be a student at The Ohio State University.
