Introducing Christopher Polo

Christopher Polo

Which undergraduate degree do you hold from Texas A&M?

I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Sciences and an Undergraduate Certificate in Cultural Competency and Communication in Spanish.

What are your career goals?

Long-term, I want to become a physician; and while I am currently interested in orthopedic specialties, as my education progresses, new interests may develop.

Who is your role model in life/Who do you look up to for inspiration in life?

My parents inspire me to be representative of the compassion they show me. I am fortunate they instilled qualities in me vital to success in a career path that, uncompromisingly, demands the best from you.

Tell us something you are passionate about apart from studies

I enjoy traveling because it combines opportunities to experience new cultures and see the diverse terrains around the world. As the son of an immigrant, exposure to the contrasting families of my parents taught me the value of the cultural exchange.

How do you like your eggs cooked? Feel free to share a recipe!

I favor the scramble, but I don’t shy from the other techniques. If you want average eggs, I am your guy. If not, I suggest a quick YouTube education by Gordon Ramsey or your preferred chef.
