PHIDE MEMBER SPOTLIGHT: Meet Izabella Isaza!
Izabella is a junior majoring in Chemical Biology from Clifton, NJ. She is the president of La Alianza, conducts Photodynamic Therapy Research, is an organic chemistry TA, does hospice volunteering, church volunteering, is on club volleyball and the Salsa On2 performance team. “PhiDE truly was one of the first organizations at CWRU that made me feel like I had found my home. I felt incredibly welcomed and met many people who share the same hardworking drive for medicine as I do, along with similar interests and hobbies. PhiDE has supported me through many moments in my college career, from switching majors and finding research opportunities to providing pre-med and general college advice. Some of my most memorable core college moments have been with my PhiDE members, and these experiences have given me a true sense of belonging.”
