“No such thing as a life that’s better than yours”

J.Cole

What’s good, I’m Garrison Hill. I’m 18 and I’m a young Black man originally from Kansas City, Missouri. I’m majoring in Biology – Medical Sciences here at SIUE and I want to pursue a career in veterinary medicine after college. I am on the Men’s Soccer team here at SIUE and hope to pursue soccer after college if possible. I’m hoping to graduate in the Spring of 2026, but I red-shirted my freshman year for soccer so I don’t know what that means for me in terms of how long I’ll be here. I love to listen to music, take naps, play video games, watch tv and YouTube, and play mentally-stimulating games on my phone. Some obstacles I’ve had to overcome have been going to the same PWI my entire life prior to college and not the best mental and physical health history, but I’ll be alright. Enjoy watching my journey.
