SNMA Region 1

I AM THE FUTURE OF MEDICINE – Marc Parris, MD Candidate at UC San Francisco (UCSF). Marc is also a proud alumni of Harvard University where he not only majored in Physics, but due to his passion in working with the youth, decided to complete an Undergraduate Teacher Education Program, which trained him as a student-teacher through the Harvard Graduate School of Education and the Boston Public Schools system during his junior and senior years. After finishing the program and earning a degree and teaching license, Marc taught high school chemistry and physics for four years at the Community Charter School of Cambridge and worked part-time as an educational consultant (writing curriculum and training manuals, conducting trainings) for a non-profit SAT/college preparatory company called Let’s Get Ready. His willingness to serve and mentor the youth is truly inspiring and through his story, we hope you find motivation that encourages you to work on getting closer to your dreams.
