In addition to serving as Phi Delta Epsilon’s Vice President of Programming, Ore is an executive board member of the Pre-Medical Minority Mentorship Program (PreM3); a member of Globemed@Cornell; a research assistant in the Personality, Attachment, and Control Laboratory; and a university tour guide for Cornell University Visitor Relations. She also volunteers at Suwannee Pediatrics during school breaks, and enjoys cooking, taking photos, journaling, and spending time with her friends and family during her free time. 

 

PhiDE has been an integral part of Ore’s Cornell—and pre-medical—career since her sophomore year, as it has introduced her to some of the most dedicated and passionate pre-med students on campus. Additionally, she’s been exposed to a number of resources that are continuing to play a vital role in her preparation for life a medical student, as a resident, and ultimately, as a physician. This year, as the VP of Programming, Ore looks forward to working alongside the rest of the executive board to orchestrate a number of educational, cultural, professional, and social events to help reach those on campus and off.
