Author name: Rebecca Lee

Hi, my name is Rebecca Lee, from Alameda, CA. I graduated from UCLA in 2011 majoring in Physiological Sciences and minoring in English. I'm currently on my 4th year rotations at UC Berkeley School of Optometry. Ever since writing for The Daily Bruin at UCLA, I'd been searching for ways to integrate my journalism experience with optometry.

My hobbies include dancing, Muay Thai, working out, and cheering for the Golden State Warriors!
