Kiera is looking to intern at a busy hospital, in particular, shadowing a physician in the specialties of oncology, maternity, OB/GYN, or pediatrics as well as a possible internship with the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute
Kiera on her internship experience at ProEx Physical Therapy:
"My internship at ProEx Physical Therapy was amazing and taught me many things. However, I learned that it was not the field of study I wanted to continue. I soon changed my major to biology to hopefully gear me towards medical school."
Kiera sees herself finishing graduate school and working in a hospital to begin her career while also dreaming of starting a family
Community Service
In high school, Kiera volunteered at a road race, Kick In for Kids, and the Boys & Girls Club Youth Triathlon every spring season
