Biology; Neuroscience
We are absolutely overjoyed to have watched you grow during your four years at the University of Pennsylvania! The education you’ve obtained double majoring in Biology and Neuroscience and minoring in English is only matched by your positive influence throughout the University.
Your enthusiasm, kindness, strength, relentless hard work, and beautifully unique approach has impacted every corner of the school, from D1 student-athlete pole vaulter to three-time Director of the SPEC Spring Fling Concert (including the best concert in school memory), from years as a research assistant in neuroscience on and off campus to playing percussion in the Penn Band, from Co-President of the Bioastronautics at Penn club to volunteering to help elderly Alzheimer’s patients.
Simply put, the breadth and depth of the accomplishments and contributions you’ve made while at UPenn by boldly pursuing your interests with your characteristic positivity and zeal, together with the wonderful friendships you’ve made, have been nothing short of amazing and we are so incredibly proud of you! We love you so much!
Love,
Mommy, Daddy & Justin
