This mission and an understanding of the need for whole person care is something I seek to demonstrate and encourage through my profession as a nurse and involvement in my community.

I see myself being an engaged member of the WCU and Brinson Honors College community by being involved in community service opportunities, becoming a member of leadership organizations, and taking advantage of opportunities to study and serve in a different country or to participate in undergraduate studies.

As a child, I was never aware of my family’s financial struggles. My parents divorced when I was 12 and money became the central issue in my life.

Since setting foot on campus two years ago, University of Chicago has been a beacon of inspiration to me. Every aspect, from the flexible, stellar academics to the extensive research opportunities to its proximity to Chicago matches the setting in which I hope to immerse myself in over the next four years.
