About
My name is Kendra, and I am passionate about furthering my education for one main reason: I realized I can!
Years of strife with an undiagnosed disability as a child, as well as chronic trauma caused my self esteem to plummet due to my poor outlook and drive. For years I have been working not only towards my educational future, but my emotional well-being and growth. Through therapy I have since realized my potential. I am learning the way my brain works differently than others, and it's given me the insight into how I can navigate this world.
Since building the courage to start school, I have surpassed all expectations of myself. I have excelled, dedicated all my time and energy into my education, and I am so proud to say that I not only can and will do it, but I HAVE done it!
I want my life to forever be focused on learning, self improvement, and growth.
Thank you for reading.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
My plan is to give back to the animals that helped me through my traumatic childhood - by taking care of them the way they did for me. I am currently working on my CVT, but also hoping to advance further in the field.
Pathology interests me greatly, and I hope to be able to work in clinical pathology labs that work to create cures for diseases that I see in my day to day.
- Graduate school interests
Clinical pathology, anesthesia, and diagnostic imaging are all very high potential grad school focuses.
- Outside the classroom
Animal rescue, woodworking, hiking, writing.
