I believe that is the most rewarding thing I can get out of this program. Having the ability, the power, to change someone’s life, by just giving him or her basic health care knowledge is so empowering.

Being a student at Frostburg State University has allowed me to participate in a number of student organizations as well as leader positions and experiences.

At a time of uncertainty and volatility, I stepped up and decided to lead when no one else was able to. Our chapter’s motto is “noblesse oblige”- the idea that those who have been provided insight and opportunity must give back for the good of the community.
