About Me

Hello, my name is Abhishek Rajesh and I’m a first year pre-med student majoring in neuroscience at The Ohio State University. I’m from Columbus, Ohio, but I lived in India from 2011 to 2016 before I eventually moved back. During my time there, I had the chance to teach impoverished kids subjects like math and science at a local school. This was when I first developed my habits of service and volunteering. Now, I volunteer at Mt. Carmel St. Ann’s hospital. I’m also a member of the Health Science Scholars Program at Ohio State. The opportunities I get here complement my interest in science and medicine. My goal for after my undergraduate years is to get into medical school, but I also want to be involved in research until then, specifically in the biological sciences. Outside of academics, I love playing sports like basketball and soccer since they’re a great way to relieve stress, stay fit, and have a good time.
