About Me
Hi! My name is Megan Rochford. I am from Westlake, Ohio (about 20 min from Cleveland). I am majoring in neuroscience on a pre-med tract. I played softball my whole life and I was involved in many things in high school. I was an active member of National Honors Society, Student Council, and German club. I also was a Cleveland Clinic volunteer researcher. My involvement with the Clinic has been a once in a lifetime opportunity and it has really inspired me to pursue a career in medicine.
