Biography

Hometown - Akron, Ohio (but born in Israel)

Undergraduate Institution - Brandeis University

Class of 2024

Why did you pursue podiatric medicine?

It’s a great blend between interacting with patients and having the opportunity to do surgery. Plus, it’s a super underrated field!

Why did you choose Kent State?

Because of the welcoming atmosphere

Favorite aspect of Kent State now that you are a student here?

How willing everyone is to help each other

What advice do you have for anyone considering podiatry school?

Do it!

Have you begun to prepare Boards yet?  If so, what are you doing in terms of preparation? Any advice?

Not really. Right now my only prep is making sure that my notes are organized so that when I begin studying for real I will know where to find everything (and know that they are legible!)

How do you strike a balance between class work, studying, and social activities?

I write everything in my planner and schedule out each day. Who knows what will happen if I lose it.

Any suggestions for prospective students on building/ maintaining a balance?

Make a list of what your top priorities are, and make time for those. My Netflix addiction has unfortunately taken the back burner :/

What one word describes you best?

Loyal

What are some activities you are involved in at KSUCPM?

Student ambassador

As a first-year student, what are some of the challenges you faced (if any) while transitioning into medical school?

Figuring out the best way to study. What worked in undergrad/grad school may not work now!

What one word describes KSUCPM?

Friendly

What advice would you offer to any prospective students wishing to attend KSUCPM who are in the current application process?

You’ve made a great decision in applying here! It is a great place. But, no matter where you end up, you are entering into a great field.

Most challenging course and why?

Anatomy. There is so much information to stay on top of that you need to practice a little every day
