Originally born in Jamaica, Jaydeen Sewell moved to Bridgeport, CT when she was 13. A graduate of Central High School, Jaydeen is a Biological Sciences major with a potential double major in Psychology. Though she has many interests in the health field, including public health, general surgery, and orthopedic surgery, her goal is to pursue her main interest of providing health care in developing countries, specifically to return to Jamaica and open a free clinic. Jaydeen has learned and grown from the opportunity to participate in the National Youth Leadership Forum of Medicine, where she watched a knee replacement surgery and shadowed doctors from different specialties. A self-proclaimed giver of great advice, she looks forward to both pursuing her other hobby, dancing, and to new experiences with the Pre-Med Society as she transfers to the Storrs campus.
