Wanting to help people is a part of who I am and has been since a young age. From volunteering at North Texas Food Bank as a middle school student in National Junior Honor Society, to eventually leading volunteers at North Texas Surgical Center as the president of National Honor Society in my senior year of high school, I lived to serve. The ever evolving field of healthcare has never ceased to amaze me. I can still recall my first memory of shadowing in a hospital: terrified, yet enthralled by the fact that so many precious lives were being micromanaged all at once by the dedicated staff. I saw myself in their shoes, saving lives; not for recognition, but to better humanity. This passion drove me through my high school years, inspiring my choice to enroll in a Collegiate Academy and earn my Associate of Science by the age of 18. As I charged through my education, I participated in health-related competitions through HOSA, completed an Emergency Medical Technician certification course, and volunteered over 150+ hours at North Central Surgical Center earning a Volunteer Scholarship and the Barbara James Service Award. My service and leadership earned me a full-ride to the University of North Texas from the Terry Foundation This year: I have had the privileged to serve as the 2021-2022 Scholar Liaison for the UNT Terry foundation and the Career and Personal Fall 2021 Development Director for Chi Omega Fraternity. I am now pursuing my Bachelor of Arts in Biology and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology with minors in Chemistry and Medical Anthropology in hopes of attending medical school and fulfilling my lifelong dream of becoming a physician one day. To achieve my goals, I plan to utilize my knowledge of BLS, patient care, laboratory procedures, and navigating Microsoft Office to first earn a position as a research assistant. I will gladly take every opportunity offered to me to help heal our world.
