UVA Biology People Yumin Kim

Yumin Kim

I am a second year from Vienna, VA majoring in Music and Biology. After graduation, I hope to attend medical school and eventually practice as a psychiatrist, while incorporating techniques from music therapy and other types of complementary medicine. Outside of classes, I am involved in biology research and work at the UVA Career Center as a Career Peer Educator. I also play viola in the Charlottesville Symphony. I decided to become a Peer Teacher in hopes of bridging the gap between student and teacher in a lab setting while sharing my passion for biology. It’s incredibly rewarding to know that I may have helped my peers understand difficult procedures and concepts!
