About

Govind is from Florida and after graduating from FSU with a major in Biological Sciences and a Minor in Chemistry, worked for a year as a second-grade teacher with an extended day program through the Florida school system.

Govind has continued to be engaged in teaching and education and will graduate from UF along the Medical Education Track. He has been actively engaged with his medical school, serving on multiple student task forces and as a member of the search committee for the new SOM Director of Evaluation and Assessment, the class representative for the curriculum committee, Mentorship Chair, and admissions committee member. He was awarded the University of Florida College of Medicine Distinguished Service Award in recognition of his work with medical students, including chairing the orientation for the incoming class of 2023. In recognition of his outstanding academic performance, Govind was inducted into the AOA Honor Society.

Outside of medicine, Govind enjoys video games (sounds like he is unbeatable in Smash Bros), playing tennis, and travel.
