Welcome to YariMed Mentors, a platform dedicated to sharing valuable resources and insights with aspiring medical professionals. Our mission is to guide and support students on their journey to becoming compassionate, skilled healthcare providers.

My Story

Growing up in a lively Dominican household, I learned to cherish the power of silence. It became my sanctuary, a space where I could process life's challenges and find inner strength.

My journey took an unexpected turn when my father was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. Overnight, I transitioned from a carefree daughter to a caregiver, facing fears and responsibilities I never imagined. This experience, coupled with my time working in a nursing home, ignited my passion for neuroscience and holistic patient care.

I witnessed firsthand the transformative power of advanced medical treatments like Deep Brain Stimulation, which gave my father a second chance at life. These experiences have shaped my vision of becoming a doctor who sees beyond symptoms—one who nurtures not just the body, but also the spirit.

Our Mission

  • Study tips and strategies for pre-med courses and MCAT preparation
