GOALS

Global Awareness: I have attended many classes and workshops on diversity and different aspects of diversity. I am currently involved with a program called LLDI with workshops that is for latinx students at the Ohio State University. I am also involved with events held by the Office of Diversity and Inclusion which expose me to many different cultures. These help me stay well aware. I am also a part of the Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation, and Morrill Scholars Program which are both programs that focus on diversity and inclusion. I believe this is a crucial area to be highly involved with and aware of.

Original Inquiry: I am currently doing research at the The Wilma H. Schiermeier Olentangy River Wetland Research Park. Here I am studying and exploring water quality, and different ways water can be improved. I do research on ways to help ecosystems through water and life associated with water to make the water systems healthy. I am also attempting to join a medical lab that does cardiovascular and skeletal muscle research. I believe these research experiences will change my life in a very positive way, and I think I will be able to make a huge positive impact on life.

Academic Enrichment: I believe doing research is a great way to enrich my academics. This teaches me many skills in classes, and analyzing things with knowledge obtained by my classes. I also take honors classes and high level classes to increase the rigor of my academic career. I think that there are many great ways to enrich my academics, and they tie in very well with other important parts of my life.

Leadership Development: I am planning on going to leadership conferences like SHPE, and SACNAS to hopefully learn leadership skills and improve my communication as a leader. I am also in The Latinx Leadership Development Institute where they teach leadership skills and how they can be put into place to be successful. I believe strong leadership is important in life, but along with this I value teamwork very heavily with leadership.

Service Engagement: I plan to volunteer at the hospital, and for different organizations around the community. I am in Med Life and Doctors without borders which both supply me with many opportunities to do community service and volunteer. I believe helping in the community is very important, and will also help me to be a more well rounded individual.
