Jaiden DeBoe is a sophomore at SIUE where he is majoring in biology with a minor in chemistry. He started his freshman year as a computer science major but switched to biology shortly after the end of his second semester. Growing up, Jaiden always showed proficiency in mathematics. By his senior year of high school, Jaiden was taking a college level Calculus I-II course. He did not know what exactly he wanted to do for work in the future, but he knew he wanted it to be something involved with math. As a result, he decided to follow in his father’s footsteps and become a computer engineer. After realizing that he had the skills to do so much more in the world, he decided that he wanted to become a doctor. He switched his major to biology and has since been working on catching up from the classes he missed. His plan is to graduate from SIUE and go to medical school in Springfield, where he hopes to specialize in neurology later.
