Hi There! 

My name is Ria and I am originally from Melbourne, Australia, but now call Lexington home. I am a senior studying Neuroscience on the Pre-Medical track in hopes of reaching my ultimate goal of becoming a physician. In my free time you’ll find me exploring different coffee shops, teaching a spin class, or reading a book by the pool!

One of the many things I love about the University of Kentucky is the various ways to get involved on campus. In addition to being an ambassador, I am a member of the medical fraternity on campus called Phi Delta Epsilon where I previously served on the executive board. I also volunteer by triaging patients at the University of Kentucky’s Salvation Army Clinic – a free community clinic ran by pre-medical and medical students.

I chose to attend the University of Kentucky because of its beautiful campus and all that it has to offer. I hope that I can help prospective students by guiding and supporting them throughout their journey here at UK!
