Steven is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree in Neuroscience in an effort to understand the underlying neural networks that direct and affect our actions in everyday life. After graduation, he is interested in pursuing medical school to become a physician and provide quality healthcare that will not only improve physical health, but mental, emotional, and spiritual health as well. Steven is particularly interested in Psychiatry and General Medicine and the opportunity the medical specialties offer in their ability to foster long-term relationships with patients. In his free-time, Steven enjoys long-runs, learning new songs on guitar, and brewing the "perfect" cup of coffee.
