Hi everyone! My name is Grace Kim, and I’m a second-year student in the University of Missouri–Kansas City School of Medicine six-year medical program. I was born in Busan, South Korea and raised in northern New Jersey, so moving to Kansas City was definitely an adjustment. Getting involved with APAMSA helped me find a sense of community, and I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to serve on the national board as a member of the podcast committee this year! Outside of school, you’ll find me reading on my Kindle, traveling with my family, or exploring new coffee shops.

I grew up just outside Philly and come from a tight-knit family with lots of little cousins who I love spending time with.
