My name is William Meade, and I am a biology major at Old Dominion University. I decided to pursue Biology because I have a passion for science and helping others and want to become a doctor. I am from Carrollton, Ga a small city in west Georgia. Growing up I went to Central High school, then went to the University of West Georgia for 2 years, before ultimately going the Navy. I joined the navy in 2016 as a Hospital corpsman, and have since went to surgical technologist school, and then on to Urology technician school. Since joining I have passed my CST to become a nationally accredited surgical technologist, and have been working at Naval Medical Center Portsmouth since 2017. When I moved to Hampton roads I then transferred to Old Dominion University where I have come to finish out my degree and graduate from before moving.
