About

I attended the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga my first semester out of high school. Although I loved it, I had to return home to attend the local community college for a year and a half. Now that I am done at Pellissippi State, I am returning to UTC fall 2014. I got an amazing opportunity to work at Blount Memorial Hospital in the cardiology department. It was a great summer job, but I'm looking forward to continuing my studying at UTC.
