Abbey Weidenhoffer

As a junior at SGIS and a Scholar with Distinction since middle school, I am driven by a passion for medicine, Spanish and connecting with others. My experiences as a Model UN leader and volleyball team captain have taught me the power of teamwork and leadership, while also building lasting friendships. This past summer, working hands-on with clinicians at a healthcare camp sparked my commitment to a future where I can blend my love for science, language and service to make a meaningful impact.
