About Me

Hi, I am Alivia Oney and am a second year student here at The Ohio State University!  I am originally from Upper Sandusky, Ohio, a small town about an hour and a half north of Columbus.  In high school I was involved in several different sports, clubs, and organizations.  I played soccer, basketball, and softball, and I was a member of National Honor Society, Student Council, Quiz Bowl, and a service club called Younger Professionals.  I also stayed involved in my community by volunteering through different organizations like my church and through my local Elks chapter.

I chose Ohio State because of the countless academic and professional opportunities that are available to students like myself.  I hope to get my undergraduate degree in Medical Dietetics and pursue a career in clinical nutrition.  I’m grateful to be involved in something as influential as the Health Sciences Scholars Program as it provides me with opportunities to continue serving my community and continuing my education while staying connected with people who share the same interests as me!
