Meet the Alum

Alpha Winter '18
Francesca Giacona
Graduated May 2020, currently in Ann Arbor.
I did 2 gap years working in pulmonary/immunology research in Boston at Massachusetts General Hospital! Now I’m back as an M1 (class of 2026) at the University of Michigan Medical School.
Future Plans: Getting through medical school! Finding a speciality I enjoy!
Go Phi Chi! From the Alpha pc, it’s so incredible to see how much the frat has grown!

Aria Trager
Graduated May 2021, currently in East Lansing.
I got a job as a personal trainer during my gap year, and now I am a first year osteopathic medical student at Michigan State College of Osteopathic Medicine!

Delta Fall '19
Will Sanislow
Graduated May 2021, currently in Boston, MA.
I have been working as a clinical research assistant in the Adolescent Substance Use and Addiction Program at Boston Children's Hospital. I am part of a study that is developing a vaccine to prevent fentanyl overdose. I am more on the "people" side of the study, so I work a lot with people who have opioid use disorder, physicians, social workers, and other stakeholders in the current opioid epidemic.
Future Plans: Currently applying to medical school so hopefully I will be going to med school next fall.
I would be happy to talk with anyone about anything, but some areas where I think I could provide some particularly helpful insight would be clinical research, taking a gap year and what do do during it, application tips, or more about addiction or addiction medicine.
