About

My name is Emma Saddoris and I am from Jefferson, Iowa. I currently live in Ogden while attending DMACC in Boone and Ames. I am taking my prerequisites for DMACC's nursing program, which I hope to join in the fall of 2016. I run on DMACC's cross country team and love it. I have enjoyed my time at DMACC and am so glad I choose to attend it!

After obtaining my RN at DMACC, I plan on furthering my education and becoming a nurse practitioner. I have not decided where I want to go for this quite yet.
