Hi! My name is Allie Marcotte (she/her).
I am a 3rd year at the University of Virginia (go hoos) majoring in Biology with a minor in Health and Wellbeing. I am pre-med, specifically interested in family medicine. I love the longitudinal care and close ties that family practitioners have with their patients, as well as the education and advocacy that comes with family medicine.
Aside from medical aspirations, I am heavily involved in the equitation team at my university as president of the club. I love being outside and the blue ridge mountains have a special place in my heart. I am a huge animal lover (ask me about how cute my dogs are!) and I love to unwind with a good cheesy romcom.
