Get to Know a Delta

Meet Nina Guo!

Helllllo everyone! My name is Nina, and I’m a senior tri-delta from Houston, TX. I’m majoring in Biology with a minor in French. This summer, I studied for and took the MCAT, applied to medical schools, and then packed my bags for Paris, France! (In the picture, I’m standing at the gates of Versailles) I spent six weeks there taking classes at the Sorbonne, pretending to be Parisian, and eating at least 3 pâtisseries per day. It’s tough to find time as a bio major to study abroad, so I’m SO happy I got to do it this summer in the beautiful city of lights!

Other than hanging out down in F-J (which is Frazier-Jelke, the underground science building, for you non-nerds), I also spend time as the Kinney community service coordinator for the hospitals and healthcare area. I love meeting new people and helping them get plugged into volunteer opportunities around Memphis, like the TARGET HOUSE and ST. JUDE, which just happen to be DDD’s national philanthropy. I love going to the Target House with my tri-delta sisters and hanging with the young patients. We do crafts and decorate cookies and, sometimes, airplane contests (despite what Meredith Bond said a few posts below, she did NOT win that contest…)!

I can’t wait to be reunited with all my sistas and meet the new kids, too! À bientôt!

Dl,
Nina
