Role models
My parents
Without question, my parents are my role models. They both possess a positive outlook, exceptional work ethic, and a spirit of generosity and ingenuity. Every challenge presented to them is seen as an opportunity for personal growth. It is due to their extraordinary optimism and support that I have been the first within my extended family to earn a bachelor’s degree and now a master’s degree as well.
Dream job
The professional philosophy of public health, to improve quality of life, resonates strongly with me and drives the work that I seek. My dream job would provide the opportunity for me to use and develop my unique strategic skill set and personal strengths to substantially improve the lives of clients, consumers, and employees.
Define success
For me, success is derived from learning and continuous improvement. My work and I are in a constant state of progress, and taking time to observe, reflect, evaluate, and develop is very important to me.
