我将担任健康科学的学术顾问.

I graduated from Iowa Central with my associate of applied science as a medical laboratory technician and my associate of arts. While at Iowa Central, I was involved in the student ambassador program and student government.

In my free time I like to water ski, go turkey hunting, read, watch movies, and spend time with my family.

After going through the college process, I wanted to use my experiences to help other students. I had a hard time deciding what I wanted to do and spent a large amount of time with my advisor trying to figure out all of my options. I know first-hand how everyone at Iowa Central puts the students first and goes above and beyond to ensure that they have the best experience possible. 我希望我在爱荷华中心的MLT项目的经验, 了解毕业后在医院的生活, 将帮助当前和未来的学生更好地理解健康科学. 作为一名学生，我喜欢爱荷华中央学院是一所两年制学院，有大学的感觉. I also loved all of the activities that are put on for students and opportunities available to meet other students and get connected! I am very excited to be a part of this team and in a position to help give others the same great experience I had!
