Volunteer
September 2018 - June 2019 • New York City, NY
What I liked
It was a very good experience where I was able to gain knowledge of what went on in a clinical setting. I was able to meet important people who have intentions of investing in me through my college career than I am still in contact with.

One piece of advice would be to network and don’t be afraid to speak up. There are many people willing to help and voice advice.
