RESUME PROFILE
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye
may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God (Romans 12:2). Fifteen, a
junior, youngest in calculus, taking two college classes, captain of the quiz bowl team, self-
taught bassoon player, and lover of learning. My current educational and career goal is to
achieve a Ph.D. in biomedicine. I have confidence, I am very committed to both my education
and extracurricular activities, and I always seek to better myself in order to positively influence
peers. I’m also adaptive to all situations and very amiable. While keeping balance academically,
socially, physically, and giving back to community, I have learned the most important aspect of
my success - my eternally expanding devotion to God and thankfulness for what he has allowed
me to achieve.
