Student Profile

Zahra Hussain

Zahra Hussain
Graduation: 2013
Major: Integrative Physiology and Health Science

With a passion for people and problem-solving, Zahra Hussain’s symptoms can only mean one thing: a lifelong dream of being a doctor. She says she has known she wanted to pursue this career path since she was 4 years old.

“My dad is a doctor, and so is everyone else in my family: aunts, uncles, cousins,” she says. “Growing up in that atmosphere, it was easy to figure out that it was what I wanted to do as well.”
