Since the age of 15, I have dedicated myself to the healthcare field, committed to providing exceptional patient care and improving health outcomes. My journey began as a medical receptionist, progressed to a patient care technician, and is now leading me toward becoming a physician assistant. This path has equipped me with a comprehensive set of skills and a deep understanding of patient care.After working for two years on a urology and transplant Med-Surg unit, it ignited my passion for improving healthcare access, particularly by increasing access to preventative and screening services. Witnessing the profound benefits these services provided to our patient population reinforced my commitment to advocating for and implementing these crucial services.As a rising public health senior, I am continually seeking opportunities to expand my knowledge and skills. I believe that this continuous learning will enhance my ability to make significant contributions to the public health and healthcare fields.
