Minnie Jan
Minnie is a senior, double majoring in Neuroscience and Kinesiology. Originally from Orange County, Calif., she began as a pre-medicine student. However, her fascination in kinesiology led her to physical therapy. She is heavily involved in several service organizations on campus, including Interaxon, an educational outreach program geared toward instigating curiosity of the sciences in students in the Compton area, and Global Water Brigades, an organization that gives students hands-on experience planning, developing, and building sustainable irrigation systems in rural areas of Honduras and Ghana. "My experience at USC has been a great opportunity that has inspired me to give back to the community and use my talents, skills, and knowledge in the field of physical therapy to benefit those around me," she says.
