Hello! My name is Keerthi Reddy and I am from Mason, Ohio. I am currently studying biochemistry on a pre-medicine track and I hope to get a minor in social justice. I’ve always been interested in practicing medicine, but I’m also very interested in health care policies and health disparities around the world. I’m very passionate about being a global citizen and promoting awareness about the problems people in the world face, and in the future I would like to combine my passion for medicine with my passion for social justice, whether it’s in the country or around the globe. I’m also very passionate about leadership–I’ve been part of a state-wide leadership organization since I was a freshman in high school, and now I’m a member of the Mount Leadership Society Scholars at Ohio State. Being in this scholars program and being at Ohio State will help me pave my path to accomplishing my goals by providing me with the tools I need to grow as a student and a leader. Go Bucks!
