About

I am a student at the University of Kentucky. I just finished my freshman year and will be a sophomore next year. I major in Biology on a Pre-Med track. This year was difficult, however I was successful. I was able to make a 4.0 GPA for my first year, after many hours of studying and hard work. It is my dream to go to medical school because a physician is a profession I am very interested in. Physicians are the closest thing to superheroes in my mind, because they have the power to change and save lives. I recently obtained my CNA certification and started working at Cardinal Hill Rehabilitation Hospital. I work in their brain injury unit.
