Melonie Chaves

I was born in Manhattan, New York. Before starting high school I didn’t really know what I wanted to do when I got older. Many teachers at STEM helped guide me in figuring that out. A year ago I was dedicated to getting straight A’s and a high GPA. I would work really hard in school and I would work and study whenever I got the chance to at my job. Now my plan is to join the military to practice medicine. I strongly believe that the path I’m on will help me accomplish my dreams.
