Hi! My name is Purnika Poudel, and I’m a ‘27 from Rochester, New Hampshire. I’m an Anthropology Major and an International Studies Minor. On campus, I’m involved in Dartmouth EMS and have even become a CPR Instructor through the organization. I’m also involved in Strengthening Educational Access at Dartmouth (SEAD) through the DCSI, Council on Student Organizations (COSO), DOC Farm Club, and Greek life. In high school, I got my Certified Clinical Medical Assistant (CCMA) and a Certified Phlebotomy Technician (CPT) certifications and have worked as a phlebotomist at my hometown hospital for the last two years. As a phleb, I’ve worked in outpatient, inpatient, and in the emergency department during all different shift times! When I’m home, I also volunteer with Gather, a mobile food pantry in the greater NH seacoast area. In my free time, I love to read, soak up the sun outside, go shopping, and hang out with my friends. I’d love to talk about my commitments on campus and my experiences as a phleb, so while I am off 25F, feel free to call, text, or email me whenever! Looking forward to meeting and getting to know you all!!
