Hello! My name is Ashleigh Powell and I am a first year medical student at VCOM-VA. I love spending time with family and friends (I am the oldest of 5 girls so it can get a little crazy!), playing with animals, drinking coffee (always!), and traveling.
I am SO excited to be taking this course with you all! I've lived in Virginia pretty much my whole life, but have always found enjoyment learning about other countries and cultures (but there is still so much more to learn!). I travelled to Honduras last year with VCOM through their graduate program and fell in love with the sweet people and the beautiful mountainside, so I'm grateful for another opportunity to work with you all. I'm thrilled to learn more about the other sites, get to know you all better, and hopefully meet some of you all in person on a future mission trip! :)
