About
Since I was a child, I have always wanted to go into the medical field. The only struggle was choosing an occupation in the medical field. After shadowing many professions throughout my senior year and summer leading up to my freshman year of college, I have decided becoming a Dentist is the career for me. Throughout high school, I started taking class at Western Kentucky University to help lead up to my freshman year of college at The University of Kentucky. I am currently pursing a degree in The School of Arts with a Biology major. Starting second semester of my freshman year, I will be declaring a minor in Business Management. By graduation, I hope to have a major in Biology with a double minor is Business Management and Psychology. Since starting my freshman year, I am involved in Chi Omega Fraternity, Make A Wish Foundation, Student Activities Board, Christian Student Fellowship, and Intramural Sports. I have also been accepted to Honorssociety.org and I am on the Dean's List at the University of Kentucky.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
After graduating from the University of Kentucky with a degree from The School of Arts with a major of Biology, I would like to attend graduate school. My goal is to attend graduate school out of state because I would like to broaden my horizon by traveling out of my comfort zone. My first few years of being a Dentist, I would love to travel out of the country for work before making a permanent practice in the United States. Eventually I would love to start my own practice and have a business myself. As you can see, I chose to minor in Business Management for this specific reason, so if I do choose to open my own practice then I have a degree to help me do so. Minoring in Psychology also helps significantly with customer interactions and understanding how to work with and attend to clients. Although, my main goal as a Dentist is to personable with my patients and successful with my practice. I want my patients to enjoy coming to the dentist and to feel as if they have a friendship with me, rather than feeling as if I am a stranger. I feel as if customer service can be key in having a successful business and being a successful Dentist.

Upon graduation from The University of Kentucky, I plan on attending a Dental School program.
