Hi! I’m Cindy, a 4th year MD-PhD student in New York City. I am currently in the PhD phase of my degree program, and studying biomedical informatics.

I originally started this blog as a way to document my life as a premed–but it evolved into a blog where I share advice and resources for premeds (and sometimes, my musings as a med student). I hope to help make the process of getting to medical school a little less opaque for others by honestly sharing my experiences.

I’m passionate about mentorship & research, but in my spare time I also love to make music, crochet, and read. :)

You can also find me on TikTok, Youtube, and Instagram.
