About
I am an aspiring Physician Assistant. My goals are to be able to help people in their time of need. The healthcare field has been in my family for generations. Both my grandmother and mother worked in healthcare. I want to not only follow in their foot steps but go beyond any one else in my family as far as ability to reach people.
My goals are to finish my Masters program with honors and excellence showing my children that anything is possible.
As the first generation in my family to not only go to college but have an Associates degree all while being a single mother of 2; I feel as though this next step in my life proves just how much the hard work will pay off. I currently work 2 part time jobs while attending school and raising children.
With the help of the honor society I can't wait to see just how far I can go.
