I am in my second year of the BMC program.

Like most people in this program, I love art and science and didn’t want to choose between them for a career. In high school, I studied science to prepare for a future job and art because I enjoyed the creative challenge. Studying art and science at BMC has shown me how complementary these studies can be: not only am I stimulated by different subjects, understanding anatomy and creating art, but my work is very purposeful. I can create art to visualize details of biological processes that would otherwise be difficult to communicate. In this way, this program equips me to invest in my passion for communication and instruction.

In the future, I want to use storytelling, visual representation, and co-collaboration to design creative and interactive learning environments. I am thankful for my experience in university learning about the human body, working at the pool, and developing a passion for teaching, and high school where I learned the importance of art as a communication tool. I look forward to furthering my education in the BMC program where I am encouraged to flourish in all of these areas.
