Kayla is a second-year biochemistry major/ pre-med track, and a new writer for Her Campus at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia. Despite being new to Her Campus, she is excited to have more involvement in the chapter, and write some interesting articles! She has the goal of becoming a pediatrician, and continuing education into Med school and beyond. Her goal is to be a physician who changes a child’s life for the better, similarly to how her doctors did for her.
Outside of education, Kayla is interested in healthcare volunteer work, and disability advocacy. She has a service dog, Taz, and loves to spread awareness on accessibility, women's health, and more. Helping other people feel seen and heard gives her so much happiness, and encourages her to continue what she does.
In her free time, Kayla can be found reading a good book, taking a nap with Taz, going to the gym, hiking, or even painting. She loves to stay active on a day-to-day basis, and practice being creative given the time. Visiting cute local coffee shops and spending too much money there is her favorite weekend plan. Lastly, she always loves spending quality time with close friends/ roommates and family.
