About
I grew up in a poverish lifestyle. I never thought I could accomplish anything until I enlisted in the Marine Corps for four years. I learned the military was not something I wanted to make a career. Something I did come to the realization of is that I enjoy making others happy and enjoy taking care of people in general. I decided to push myself even though I sometimes question if I am smart enough. I decided to challenge myself and take on one of the hardest career paths known to man. That is medicine. I feel like this is my way of doing my part to contribute to the world and something I will be proud of when I am on my deathbed many years into the future.
