UWSP Health Scholars Directory

GERRIT BRINKMAN ’26

Why did you choose health care at UW-Stevens Point: Being at a smaller school like UWSP allows me to connect with my professors and provides me with opportunities within the community that I might not be able to get at bigger schools such as UW-Madison. Every professor that I have taken a health or science related course with at UWSP is very passionate about the subject they teach. My professors have been happy to help me learn more about their subject and get me connected with people in the local community. Career Aspirations: I would like to be part of a business that is dedicated to helping individuals be healthier in all aspects of life. My dream is that I would be a person that people would come to when they want help with pain relief, nutrition information, stress management techniques, and more. I aspire to help people build a base of healthy habits to that they can live their life to the fullest. Special Skills/Talents: • Conversational Spanish speaker • Backyard games enthusiast • Aspiring cook
