Emma Wrigley, NH

My name is Emma Wrigley and I am from Anchorage, Alaska. I recently graduated from Carleton College with a degree in Chemistry and am now taking a couple of gap years before pursuing a degree in medicine. I decided that I wanted to spend my gap years with the Epilepsy Foundation New England because I felt that the program would allow me to gain valuable experience in the medical field. In particular, I was most excited by the prospect of being able to directly interact and help clients through struggles they may face on a regular basis due to epilepsy. I was also excited at the prospect of learning more about the nature of epilepsy. I am excited to be serving at Dartmouth Hitchcock in Lebanon, New Hampshire throughout the upcoming year.
