**Parent Quote**

I got a tough one! Still had the bruise on her head when she tried to walk into a piece of orphanage furniture. Even now it seems surreal.

**From the Graduate**

Adoption has given me a multitude of opportunities to pursue my interest in medicine and innovation. Without my adoptive parents, I would not be where I am today. I would not be influenced by my adoptive upbringing or by the life and educational lessons that it entails. Luckily, I am now in a position where I have the chance to bring my goals to fruition at a state-of-the-art institution.

**About Gabrielle**

Gabrielle plans on continuing her academic career at the University of Pennsylvania, where she will be studying Bioengineering.
