She graduated from the IB programme in 2018 achieving the full 45 points and subsequently joined Barts and the London in September 2018 to start her journey towards becoming a doctor. Esther joined the Modern Day Medics team in 2019 with the aim of providing support and encouragement to BAME students aspiring to a career in medicine. She was incredibly fortunate during her application process to be aided and supported by many students and teachers alike and as a result has sought out to help give others that same opportunity. An old and very familiar adage she holds dear is ‘It takes a village to raise a child’ and in her eyes it takes a village to raise a doctor. She hopes to one day specialise in Obstetrics and Gynaecology and has a keen interest in mental health particularly with the Black community.
