"Patience and fortitude conquer all things." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
Hello! My name is Olivia and I am currently a fourth-year Public Health major at the University of Cincinnati. I am a member of the University Honors Program and have created this portfolio to allow you to get to know more about myself and my interests. For as long as I can remember, medicine has been a passion of mine. This passion for medicine has stemmed from a desire to reshape what it means to deliver quality patient care. Too often it seems, individuals choose medicine for the financial return or the esteem of the profession, yet fail to recognize what medicine should be: a never-ending desire to help others and make a difference in an individual's life, no matter how big or small. I intend to continue this mission of delivering care focused on the patient and hope to inspire others to do the same. Outside of this never ending search to inspire others I enjoy long runs through Clifton, spend too much time on Netflix, and I love to spend time at home with my family!
