Club Leadership
Kienna Matus
President

My name is Kienna! I was born and raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I completed by dual degree in Biology and Psychology at Fordham University in Bronx, NY. I chose to become a D.O. because I am committed to the holistic and preventative approach to medicine that is so emphasized by osteopathy. As of now, I am interested in Child Neurology with a focus on neonatal health. I have always pictured myself working with newborns, whether that was OB/GYN or Neonatology. I also am fascinated by neurology, so Child Neurology is a great way to incorporate all aspects of medicine that I am interested in. I would love to incorporate OMM into my future practice and find innovative and less invasive measures to treat my patients. Aside from school, I love playing with my 2 dogs, Phoenix and Diesel, hiking, and pickleball.
Eric Carter
Vice President

As a former college and professional athlete taking care of my body and maintaining a high level of performance was always a priority. I utilized the tenants of Integrated medicine throughout my athletic career to maintain peak performance. Integrated medicine it combines the best of both conventional and alternative treatments, offering a holistic approach to health and wellness. This approach acknowledges the importance of addressing not just physical symptoms of injury or fatigue but also the emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of well-being.
