About

My Name is Margaret E. Gettemy,
I am a first generational College student to my Mother and Father. I have always dreamed of a higher education and to make a difference in the world. By entering Health care I am able to help thousands of people. I attended Pennsylvania Cyber Charter School and graduated with my diploma. I am currently studying at Westmoreland County Community College in Western Pennsylvania. I have achieved the Dean's list 3 times, recieved a President's Award, as well as my Certificate for Phlebotomy. I am currently enrolled in a Surgical Technology Program at the college. I believe I will be on the Dean's List once again, my current GPA is a 3.30 this semester with 81 Credits in total. My goal in life is to keep learning and developing my skills to better myself and one person at a time. With knowledge, teamwork, compassion, community, and love for the growth of healthy individuals; I believe we can make a difference for the good of all.

Goals and interests

Career goal

My intended job path had started with an intrigue to the human body. I have always been fascinated by the function and mysteries of the human body and the universe. I slowly started to know more about anatomy and start finding an interest in helping people. I aspire to develop my knowledge of the human body. I have a certification in phlebotomy, in May I will be a licensed Surgical Technologist. My following goals will be in nursing to get my BSN; further more I would aspire to reach Nurse Practitioner.
