LEXINGTON, Ky. (Dec. 17, 2013) — Many of us have obstacles to overcome at some point in our lives. For one UK College of Medicine student, those struggles started early as she grew up in poverty before ultimately spending her senior year of high school in a Northern Kentucky homeless shelter.
Carl Nathe shares Kayla Kinker's journey in this "UKNow halftime report," which aired during the UK Hoops' game on Sunday, December 15.
