“I applied to medical school several times before matriculating into the GEMS program here at Georgetown. I remember the feeling I had when I came to interview for GEMS, learning about Cura Personalis and thinking of how that meshed with my own background in public health. I left that interview day knowing that this was the place that I was supposed to be, even if that meant moving to a new city where I knew no one and had no family. I stepped out on faith and now after almost 5 years I am only a few months from graduation and fulfilling a lifelong dream…and I don’t really have the words to explain what that feels like, but I know that whatever the challenges I face in my next chapter I have received a strong foundation and excellent training here at Georgetown School of Medicine and I am happy to call myself a Hoya.”
