Makayla Hallacy

Majoring in Biology, Minoring in Psychology
Emporia State University, Class of 2025
From Wichita, Kansas

Hello! I have a passion for medicine and healthcare, as well as a focus on women's health. I pride myself on being a compassionate and community-focused person. I believe that the team approach is the right way to look at problems and having diverse opinions available gives us the best chance at success. My goal is to be accepted into Physician Assistant school and become a successful PA, hopefully in women's health or family medicine.
