Antonio's Story

My passion is medicine.

At a young age, I began wondering how we as humans have become intelligent enough to figure out how to fix the human body through injections, pills, and procedures we've developed. My curiosity expanded in middle school when my biology teacher and I would have endless discussions on how the human body worked and why every action we do affects us on a smaller scale. Now that I'm in high school, I am even more interested in not just medicine, but in all aspects of science such as chemistry, astrophysics, and my favorite, human anatomy. It is my first year at LPS; I transferred from another school. In my previous school, my friend and I decided to create a medical club for our school, because we wanted to unite all folks that had the same interests as us and together learn more and more about our passions.

NSLC Medicine and Healthcare will not only expand my knowledge in medicine, but it will also contribute to my future. The program will show colleges how motivated I really am to pursue my career as a cardiologist. I am very determined to attend a college that will set me up best for my desired career choice.
