Aprile Bertomo: Personal Statements & Activity Writing

Hi there! My name is Aprile Bertomo, I am a recent graduate from Cornell University and I am currently a Medical Assistant in NYC. I hope to practice as a physician in the future, aware of how societal factors have the ability to profoundly impact human health. In my free time, I enjoy photography (although I'm not very good!), ballet dancing, and being with family and friends.
