Helping Students Achieve their Full Potential

"It means a lot to me to be a first-generation college student. [My father] instilled in me the value of hard work and the importance of education. Receiving a scholarship has defined my journey through medical school. It’s guided me in choosing what I want to do in the future and the type of doctor I aspire to be for my patients," explains Diana Lee, MD class of 2018.
