About (request update)

My name is Lola Jefferrson and some of my proudest accomplishments include founding Old Shoes/New Life, where I�ve been able to collect and distribute shoes to underserved communities. During the summer, I participated in UCLA Pre-Med Scholar Program and UC Irvine Researching Program where my passion for women's health grew; I have maintained strong academic performance while taking rigorous courses such as AP Biology and Honors Human Anatomy. In the future I aspire to be an OB/GYN. Thank you for your consideration.

Life & Professional Aspirations:

In the future, I hope to be an Obstetrician/Gynecologist focused on improving maternal health mortality rates amongst underserved communities, specifically black women.
