I’ve been able to have [Dong’s] class and then go into her research. She’s such a supportive, thoughtful professor. It’s a good example of how students are able to develop very supportive relationships with their professors here.
Grinnell definitely prepared me for my future in medicine … good studying habits, how to keep up with courseload, how to advocate for myself in the classroom, seek out professors, and how to work with people. All of those skills got really fine-tuned at Grinnell.
Sports have always been important to me. At Grinnell, basketball was a bigger part of my life than ever before. Basketball helped me maintain balance.
