Expected Graduation Date May 2024
Biosketch Hello! My name is Katherine Fernandez and I am a current junior at Kerr High School. Initially from San Pedro Sula, Honduras, I have faced various challenges throughout my journey growing accustomed to the United States. These hardships have only fueled my desire to help others to ease their own struggles, however, pushing me to become exceedingly passionate about connecting medicine and technology to help those suffering from diseases like Alzheimer’s or diabetes. Through this research program, I hope to gain more knowledge about these conditions to help others even more—especially in terms of the future because I plan to become a doctor to fulfill the goal of helping others as much as possible!
