EVOL.13.5RDIMeet Audrey Snell, Class of 2017HOMETOWNBogota, NJUNDERGRADUATE INSTITUTIONNew Jersey Institute of Technology,Newark, NJWhat made you decide to pursue a career in podiatric medicine?I always knew I wanted to be in the medical field, but once I learned aboutpodiatry, I was certain it was the field I wanted to pursue a career in. As awoman in podiatry, I hope to have a family life while still doing what I love,so it turned out to be a perfect fit for me.What made you decide to attend NYCPM?NYCPM had always been my first choice once I decided to get into podiatry. The location is ideal and Ilove everything about the school. I love that the clinic is located in the same building as our classes. Dueto the fact that our school is located in New York City, it generates a very diverse group of patients withmultiple clinical issues that I may not have been able to see had the location of our school been in asmaller, secluded area. From an academic standpoint, NYCPM was exactly what I was looking for and Iknew I would be positioning myself for an all around education that would prepare me well for theBoards.What activities are you involved in at NYCPM?I am part of the student anatomical research team where I work with fellow students alongside Dr.D’Antoni and Dr. Dilandro. I have attended some meetings and lectures provided by different clubs atNYCPM and I plan on becoming part of some this fall to broaden my outlook and experience andknowledge in the field.What is your favorite part about being a student at NYCPM or in NYC in general?My favorite part about being a student at NYCPM is the feeling of a tight knit community. With classsizes being relatively small, I have been provided with the opportunity to get to know my classmatesvery well and have already begun to build long-lasting relationships. Everyone is helpful and I would nothesitate to approach a peer or staff member with any issue or inquiry that I may have.What advice do you have for incoming students?My advice for incoming students is to come in with an open mind and make the best out of any situationthat comes your way. It is an amazing opportunity and there is so much to learn. NYCPM provides youwith the tools; you just have to be willing to learn how to use them. Be ready to work hard, but alsoenjoy the life that NYC and NYCPM present to you!***
