Nick, Podiatric Medical Student
With a passion for sports and medicine, Nick’s journey as a Podiatric student began as he grew his heart for those who may suffer from the same foot pathologies that he had in the past.
During the peak of the pandemic, Nick advocated for his brother’s movement, #HatedInAHoodie as he witnessed incidents of police brutality and couldn’t help but to imagine himself in the same situations. Also, Nick began to promote #BeAVessel to encourage others to embody God-given gifts and talents. When Nick steps outside of the hospital, he loves to rap with lyrics of encouragement that uplift his community, play basketball, and cook. Check out his page as he dedicates his platform to become a pillar of hope, love, and inspiration!
