Alexa Gyllensvaan Email & Phone Number

Hello, my name is Alexa Gyllensvaan and I am a current student at the Arnold School of Public Health at the University of South Carolina, pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree in Public Health on the Pre-Dental Track. I am a member of Alpha Epsilon Delta, a Pre-Health Fraternity at my university in order to stay involved and enhance my learning of the medical field. Additionally, I currently serve as the President of the Epsilon Kappa Chapter at the University of South Carolina, where I lead and work with 7 other executive members and 23 council members. I am also a certified CPR/AED/First Aid provider and a lifeguard with the American Red Cross. My core competencies include active listening, medical assistant experience, and leadership and reinforcement skills.In addition to my academic and volunteer activities, I have been working as a retail sales clerk at South Moon Under since May 2022, where I provide excellent customer service, handle cash transactions, and maintain store inventory and appearance. I also have been babysitting for various families since January 2021, where I demonstrate responsibility, patience, and creativity. I am passionate about health care and community service, and I aspire to attend Dental School in the future. I worked as an intern at a Family and Cosmetic dental office during the summer of 2023, where I shadowed, performed sterilizations, learned and practiced patient-care, and worked with dentists daily. I believe I can bring diverse perspectives and experiences to any team, as I have been involved in various leadership, extracurricular, and professional roles. I value teamwork, communication, and learning, and I am eager to contribute to the success of any organization.
