About

As far back as I can remember, I have been planning to go in to the medical field. For much of my young life, my family always asked what I wanted to be when I grew up. I changed my mind about what to do a several times but I knew that I had to help people, and to do so I would work as a medical professional. Now, I am sure that becoming a Physician's assistant will make me happiest. My aunt inspired me to take this path with her success as a Physician's assistant and my uncle's support and knowledge about the medical field from his point of view as a doctor. There is nothing more inspiring to me than people healing other people and the hard work put in each and every day. I want to help people to be healthy so they can enjoy their life. Most importantly, I want to be a part of the solution and a part of something bigger, to work together with people who want to help others, as I do.
