My name is Ariel Hall and I am a Second year student at The Ohio State University. I am majoring in Nutritional Sciences with a minor in Integrative Approaches to Health and Wellness and I am on a pre-medical school track. I aim to pursue an M.D. after completion of undergraduate education. I have a passion for service, health and wellness, and research. I have experience in a hospital setting, shadowing health professionals at The Wexner Medical Center in Columbus, Ohio. I am also involved in a nutrition research lab that is focused on the study of whole body energy metabolism as regulated by interactions between adipose, liver, and muscle tissues. Outside of academics, I am a student-athlete on the varsity rifle team at Ohio state and I compete throughout the year. I am also a patient care associate for Ohio-At-Home Healthcare Agency and spend my time working with people of all ages who have physical and mental disabilities. I absolutely love my job as I am able to pursue my passion for service and help other achieve their goals.
