About

I've had ambitions to work in the medical sector ever since I was a young child. Due to family members being diagnosed with diseases like cancer, brain tumors, and aneurysms, I have grown very passionate about helping and caring for people. Though I initially thought I wanted to work as a nurse, I actually wanted to concentrate more on the what and why of bodily processes. Being a qualified Medical Technologist with a Cytology concentration is my primary career objective. I decided on this degree because I want to do my part in assisting physicians in effectively identifying patient ailments at an early stage. My daughter and I are both junior college students. The ultimate objective is to someday work with my daughter. She wants to become a nurse practitioner, thus I want to be able to administer diagnostic procedures for her.
