Hi everyone! My name is Afreen, and I'm a first-year medical student from the United Kingdom. I am so excited for my first summer as a camp counselor. I am an avid traveler and enjoy exploring new places and immersing myself in different cultures. Meeting new people along the way has been incredibly enriching, as it allows me to learn from diverse perspectives and build lasting connections. In my free time, I find solace in writing a novel, which I hope to publish soon. Painting is another passion of mine, as it allows me to express myself visually. I aspire to become a pediatrician in the future, dedicated to providing compassionate care to children and making a positive difference in their lives.

What are you most proud of/biggest achievement in life so far?:

My greatest achievement is getting into medical school. It was a challenging process, but I'm proud of myself for achieving my goal. I'm passionate about healthcare and helping people, and I'm excited to begin my path to becoming a doctor.
What is your favorite hobby/sport/thing to do during your free time?:

My favorite hobby is painting. It allows me to express myself creatively and explore my imagination. I find immense joy in capturing the beauty of the world around me. Painting provides me with a sense of calm and focus, allowing me to escape the stresses of daily life.
What is your favorite thing about working with children?:

My favorite aspect of working with children is their infectious positivity. Their enthusiasm and joy for life are truly contagious, and they have a remarkable ability to brighten even the dullest of days.
