Hi, my name is Daniel Naughton, and welcome to my e-Portfolio. I’m from Maineville, Ohio, which is near Cincinnati. I graduated from Kings High School, which is so close to Cedar Fair’s Kings Island that I could park there and still get to class on time.
At Kings, I was a student-athlete. I devoted time after school to studying and completing assignments, and then went to practice. My school schedule was dense and rigorous, and I made every effort to earn the grades I needed to earn. At the same time I participated in competitive sports all across the board, from football and cross country to wrestling and academic quiz team. I also played rugby and ultimate Frisbee with friends in my free time.
Now, I’m a freshman at the Ohio State University. I am a neuroscience (pre-) major. As you can tell, I’m part of Health Sciences Scholars, which means I get to meet, work and live with people who have similar goals to my own. Along with the scholars program, I’m also on a pre-med course of study. In eight years, I will be a certified, licensed physician.
I volunteer at Riverside Hospital, Helping Hands Free Clinic, and a few other places and am currently trying to land a good research internship for this summer.
