About

I am a proud mother of three beautiful children two of whom attend North Carolina Central University with me, while my youngest chose the path of starting at community college before transferring to NCCU. I dedicated my life to raising them and making sure they all graduated from high school. Now that they are on their own educational journeys, I have returned to school to pursue my career in healthcare administration. My goal is to better myself, make my children proud, and show them that it is never too late to follow your dreams.

Goals and interests

Career goal

My intended job path is to become a Healthcare Administrator, where I can use my 15 years of experience as a medical assistant and my education in Healthcare Administration to take on leadership responsibilities in hospitals or healthcare organizations. I aspire to manage operations, improve patient care, and support medical staff by creating systems that are efficient, compassionate, and inclusive. Ultimately, I want to grow into an executive leadership role where I can make a lasting impact on healthcare delivery and inspire others to pursue excellence in the field.
