Meet Your SAND-IU Vice President: Lauren Williams

Year in School?
I am a senior this year but plan on taking a 5th year next year.    

Major?
Nutrition Science

Favorite Class at IU?
Anatomy

What is a fun fact about Lauren?

A fun fact about me would be that my first car in high school was pink, and everyone always knew where I was because of it. Still to this day my friends from home will call or text me when they see my parents driving it around to ask if I'm home.


What are Lauren's career goals?

My career goal is to become a oncology physician's assistant. I have a passion for oncology because a lot of my family has been affected by cancer. I hope to go to University of Colorado- Denver for my PA school.

Meet Your SAND IU President: Elizabeth Kehoe

Year in School: Senior

Major: Dietetics

Favorite Class you have taken at IU:  Physiology and Medical Nutrition Therapy were my favorite classes while at IU.

What you need to know about Elizabeth?

A fun, embarrassing, fact about me is that every member in my family (including myself) has crooked pinkies. I am also a server at Bell Trace, which is an elderly living community in Bloomington. Having the opportunity to interact with the elderly population by working at Bell Trace has been one of the most rewarding and educational experiences of my life. Because of this experience, I strongly suggest that anyone planning on working in the health sciences should make an effort to interact with the elderly, either through work or volunteerism, because this population is growing rapidly among our future patients and clients. 

What are Elizabeth's career goals and/or dream job?

I plan to initially work clinically in a hospital, but eventually hope to branch out into either consulting and/or public health promotion focusing on the childhood obesity epidemic.
