"Hi Quincy House! My name is Athena and I am a third-year medical student in the Pathways program at HMS. I grew up in northern Michigan and went to the University of Michigan for undergrad, where I studied Neuroscience with minors in Gender and Health and German Studies. I took one gap year studying hereditary neuromuscular disorders at the NIH near DC, before heading farther up the east coast for medical school.

When I’m not in the hospital or studying, I love to be outside and active! You can find me running, dancing, hiking, and traveling. I also enjoy baking, attending ballets and musicals, and searching for the very best ice cream in Boston! I look forward to meeting y’all - please don’t hesitate to reach out!"
