#AISSLobo
The American Indian Student Services’ #AISSLobo highlights students from across the UNM community on the AISS social media platforms, including Facebook and Instagram.
Trystan Gray (Shoshone-Bannock) a medical student and is this week’s #AISSLobo! He earned a Bachelor of Science in Microbiology from Idaho State University and chose to attend UNM due to the University’s values for diversity and culture that would create a place where he could be comfortable being himself and meeting new friends. Trystan plans to be a rural, full spectrum, family medicine primary care physician. In the future, he would love to have his own clinic that employs people from his community and create long lasting and meaningful relationships that will help foster greater trust in medicine.
One resource he hopes more North Campus students were aware of is the HSC Office for Diversity, Equity & Inclusion. He shares that they have been amazing and it’s a great place to get free coffee, water, snacks, and sometimes they even make fresh popcorn. In reflecting on his time at UNM, his proudest moment so far has been completing Phase I in his medical school journey and successfully completing the USMLE Step 1 exam! He’s excited to be moving onto the clinical years of medical school! We’re glad to be sharing a bit about a Lobo who’s an incredible role model and we look forward to the impacts he will make within his community!
