Harrison is a DMD candidate at Western University of Health Sciences for the Class of 2024. He chose to attend Western because of their emphasis towards a hands on learning style and clinical based curriculum. After completing the program, Harrison plans to return to Alaska to pursue a career in dentistry.

He says, “The best study tip that I have learned to develop is to study every single night. Making small and attainable goals every day will give you a sense of accomplishment throughout your academic journey.” Outside of school, Harrison loves to play and watch sports – specifically the TCU Frogs! He also enjoys trying new restaurants and golfing.

Of his MSHF scholarship, Harrison says, “My MSHF scholarship has been a complete blessing and has allowed me to focus more on school and less on the financial burden that is higher education. I am very grateful to be selected as a recipient!”
