A little bit about me

Hi there, my name is Kezha :) I am a pre-med student at the University of California in San Diego. I will be graduating in June with a degree in human biology and I am taking a couple gap years before going to medical school where I hope to become a pediatrician! I love working with children and want to do that during my gap years.
I enjoy being active and going outdoors and exploring, as well as baking and reading. I play ultimate frisbee and swim, I also love going on long runs and do so most days! I love music, like to sing and play guitar and am always happy to sing with others.
