A Day in the Life of a Physician Assistant Student, featuring Will Reeves ’16

Hailing in from Claremont, CA, Will Reeves attended Occidental College where he majored in Kinesiology, conducted hematology research, and played on Oxy’s football team. In his free time, he enjoys volunteering with @peace4kids and @healingheartsacrossborders. After graduating from Oxy, he and his research team discovered a novel anticoagulant they named after the school called “Occipodin” which was later presented at the American Society of Hematology. After research, Will took a bit of a detour from medicine and became an entrepreneur.
