Hi all! My name is Marie Kwok and I am a Junior majoring in Biology at Stony Brook University as part of the University Scholars Program. Throughout my academic journey, I have realized that dentistry is a field that I hope to spend the rest of my life being a part of. I am excited to be going on this trip to the Dominican Republic to see how the differences in culture affect dentistry, and also to do my part in a place where both medical and dental care are not as easily accessible. With your support, I hope to gain not only the experience that will help me in my future pursuits, but also the experience of impacting someone else's life along with the rest of my team. Thank you!
