One day, I will be introduced as Lily Gentz, M.D. Child psychiatry is the area of focus I intend to practice in. The route that I take to get to that esteemed title will also include playing volleyball at the collegiate level. I want to achieve these goals because I feel a drive to help children cope with life circumstances they do not deserve to deal with in their youth. Volleyball, for me, is an outlet. It helps me cope with my stressors. I am confident that there are lessons I have learned, and will continue to learn from the sport of volleyball which I can apply to my aspirations in my professional endeavors.
