Why did you choose Health Science at Mizzou?

In high school, I took the Sports Medicine pathway, where I loved learning about anatomy, rehab equipment, and how healthcare providers work with patients. Those classes helped me realize that I want a career where I get to interact with people, support them, and help them get stronger. That’s what led me to pursue physical therapy, and I’m excited to be working toward that goal.

What are you involved in on campus?

I’m active in the Honors College, participate in undergraduate research, and am a member of Kappa Kappa Psi, the national honorary band fraternity. I also perform with a University band ensemble and serve as an intern for Mizzou Gymnastics. When you’re here, you should get involved! Get involved. Even though it’s scary to put yourself out there, you can still find community at a big school. I’m happy to chat more about any of the activities I’m involved in.

Why should future students choose Mizzou?

The culture, traditions, and legacy are incomparable at Mizzou. It is truly a historic institution and a great place to grow in your college journey. Additionally, there are countless resources and opportunities to get involved, so there is something for every kind of person. Mizzou is a welcoming place for you to call home!
