Gina Patel is a 3rd year Health Promotion and Behavior student and an honors student.  She plans to attend med-school once she graduates from UGA.

Gina chose Health Promotion as her major because she has always been intrigued by the curriculum and opportunities the school has to offer each and everyone of its students. And with an emphasis in Health Services, she feels as though it will give her an upper hand as a physician due to the first hand experience it will give her in the field of health care.

Dancing is one of her greatest passions but she also loves to read, workout, hang out with friends, and take long walks on the beach!
