Goals and interests
- Career goal
My intended job path is somewhat fluid. I have been in healthcare for almost 20 years, and most of that time has been in the field of Oncology/chemotherapy. I am interested in oncology and cancer research and development of new pharmaceuticals and regimens to treat patients.
However, my interests are not limited to the clinical setting.
The space and defense industry is also on my "would love to" list. My previous years of work experience and current BAAS degree in Data Analysis/Organizational Supervision have given men the tools and the drive to advance my career.- Outside the classroom
I enjoy reading, going to the beach, spending time with my granddaughter and the rest of the family.
I love to do DYI projects at home, fixing, building, installing, painting, love it all.
