Majoring in Hispanic Studies has been one of the best decisions that I’ve ever made –whether it was a newfound perspective, research interest, worldview, mentor, or friend the major always added its own spark to my time at William & Mary. I will forever be grateful for the opportunity to conduct independent research on literacy with Prof. Jonathan Arries. My positive experience in Hispanic Studies has inspired me to pursue not just medicine but culturally sensitive medicine, particularly within the migrant farmworker community. I will be working in North Carolina attempting to gain exposure to this line of study and then one day pursue an MD/PhD in Medical Anthropology, concentrating in Hispanic culture.
