I have taken my interest in sport further by continuing to play tennis on a weekly basis. I volunteered to raise money for a charity called Habitat for Humanity that builds houses for the homeless in other countries. Within a school chemistry competition, I was part of a team to gain first place for producing the purest sample of aspirin.

Ready to face new challenges, I look forward to working in the medical profession with eager anticipation of my future
