Won Joon Choi - DDS Class of 2024
Hello everyone! My name is Won Joon Choi and I am a third year student at UOP. I grew up in Pacific Grove before attending UOP Stockton campus where I majored in Biological Sciences. After my undergraduate years, I continued my studies in the masters program at the Stockton campus as a Biological Sciences major as well. In my spare time, I enjoy jogging, playing games, and trying out new restaurants around the area. As a pre-dental student, I was also a participant of Dugoni PDB, and I'm excited to provide the same help I received before to you guys! I look forward to seeing everyone!

Stephen Cho - DDS Class of 2024
Hello everyone! My name is Stephen Cho and I'm a third year student here at Dugoni! I was born in the Bay Area and grew up there until college, where I attended the University of Pacific's Undergraduate Institution as part of its 2+3 pre-dental program. When I'm not studying, you can find me running along the Embarcadero, cooking for my friends, or going to the gym. As someone who pursued dentistry without having dentists in the family, I found the process unfamiliar and overwhelming. I definitely wouldn’t be here today if not for the mentors I met along the way. By using my experiences at PDB as a peer tutor and mentor, I hope to fulfill my debt of gratitude by giving back to the dental community. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions, and I greatly look forward to meeting you all!

Benson Wong - DDS Class of 2024
Hi everyone! My name is Benson Wong and I am a 3rd year student at UOP. I grew up in San Francisco before attending UC Irvine where I majored in Biological Sciences. After graduation, I took a couple of gap years to work full time as a dental assistant and also went on to complete the SFSU Pre-Health Post Baccalaureate Program. In my spare time, I enjoy working out, watching/playing basketball, trying new restaurants, and spending time with friends/family! As a pre-dental student, I remember how difficult it was to get into school so I hope to serve as a resource for those on their journey! Please don't hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting you all!

I hope to be a useful mentor and resource for those that are unsure if they want to do dentistry or just testing out the waters because I was once in your shoes. It’s my passion to be able to help others, so I’d love to answer any questions you may have! Looking forward to meeting you all!!

Elisa Wang - DDS Class of 2024
Hello there! My name is Elisa Wang and I'm a third year student here at Dugoni. I grew up in San Francisco until college, where I graduated from the University of the Pacific's Undergraduate 3+3 pre-dental program in Stockton and majored in Biological Sciences. During my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, whether it be cooking different cuisines, watching movies, and playing video games! As the first in my family to pursue a career in the health professions, I understand how challenging and confusing it can be to make through the process on your own. For that I am grateful for the mentors and support I had along the way throughout undergraduate and dental school. I hope to use my knowledge and skills to further support those embarking on their journey into dentistry and encourage those who are curious! Please do not hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions, and I look forward to meeting you all!

Hi all, my name is Samantha Rovno and I am a D2 here at UOP. I'm a Colorado native and received my BS in Biology at University of Colorado Denver in 2020. I currently live in San Mateo with my fiancé, grandmother, and two dogs. I love spending time outside with my friends and family: anything from yoga at the park to hiking near the beach, you can count me in! As a pre-dental student, I participated in a summer internship at my local dental school that ultimately inspired me to pursue dentistry as a career. I can't wait to meet you all and hope to provide a peek into what life is like as a dental student here at UOP!

Hi everyone! My name is Taylor Lam, and I’m from San Jose, CA. For undergrad, I went to UoP through the 3+3 Pre-Dental program where I received a major in Biology and a minor in Chemistry. As a former participant in PDB, I am so excited to help get others passionate about dentistry like it did for me.
