Summary
I am a first-generation student and the only child in my family. I work about 20+ hours a week as a hostess to support my household while maintaining my academics and involvement in and out of school. Outside of school, I serve as the lead youth worship leader at my church and teach children ages 7-11 in Sunday school. Balancing these responsibilities has taught me independence, time management, and empathy. My experiences have inspired me to pursue a career in medicine, where I hope to become a pediatrician and continue helping others in meaningful ways.
