Meet Allyssa, a fourth year defender from
the small town of Summerland, B.C. She was a multi-sport athlete in high
school, taking part in basketball, volleyball, cross-country, track &
field, and field hockey. Allyssa and her teammates can all agree that she leads
two lives: her field hockey one and her physiology one. Allyssa is majoring in
physiology and is very active in her program as a member of the physiology
council, MEDSPECS, and a teacher’s assistant for physiology and anatomy.
Allyssa is also our team’s representative for varsity council and is currently
in the process of applying to med school. Five years from now, she sees herself
in Vancouver with either a graduate, doctorate, or med school degree. She finds
that it would be really cool to be a person who drastically alters the way
medicine works. When she isn’t on the field, Allyssa can be found in the PULS
office in McMed or studying on the fifth floor of the McLennan library (fifth floor, left out of the elevators, first
section, to be exact). Allyssa can be described as a dedicated analytical
thinker, and she is the only one in her family to go into the field of sciences
or in university. Along with science, Allyssa also enjoys listening to country
music and shows like Big Bang Theory and
Criminal Minds.
