Hi everyone! I'm Emma Pastirik, and I'm a Junior from Cleveland, Ohio majoring in Human Health Sciences and minoring in Spanish. I'm studying on the pre-Physician Assistant track, as I hope to one day become a primary care/endocrinology PA. I love to stay involved on campus, and in addition to being the Executive Chair of the College of Health Sciences Ambassadors, I am the Vice President of Recruitment of my sorority, a member of the Student Philanthropy Board, a member of the pre-PA club, and a volunteer at the Ronald McDonald House. I also work as a nursing care technician at Chandler Hospital, which has been an amazing experience. I encourage any incoming freshman to take advantage of all opportunities both the College of Health Sciences and UK have to offer, and to take both career-related and personal risks! If you have any questions, email me at eepa235@uky.edu.
