Brandon Lee

Hello! My name is Brandon Lee, and I am a first-year medical student at UNC. I was born and raised in Clayton, North Carolina. Growing up in rural North Carolina, team sports and outdoors activities have always been a part of my life. Although, it wasn’t until college that I realized how
much exercise played a part in not only my physical health, but also my mental. My physical activities of choice nowadays revolve around training for obstacle races which mostly involves running and weightlifting. I also love a good hike, especially if there is a pretty view at the end. I am excited to join the Medicine in Motion team because of the opportunity to build community around exercise and wellness.

Gabby Cooper

I’m a third year medical student at UNC but a Duke grad and a blue devil at heart. I trained in ballet, jazz, and tap since age 3 and later expanded to Latin dance and hip-hop. My more recent passions are long distance trail running and weightlifting. I am passionate about using exercise as a tool to promote confidence and positive self-image. I truly believe the best form is exercise is the one that best suits you!

Michael Rowe

Hi, y’all. My name is Michael Rowe, and I am a first year medical student at UNC Chapel Hill. I am originally from Cary before attending undergrad at the University of Alabama before returning home for medical school. I grew up as an active kid always finding a way to get outside. Today I love to run, play disc golf, get out on the lake, and backpack through the mountains. I am extremely excited for this opportunity with Medicine in Motion and sharing my love for getting into the outdoors.
