Class of 2026

Major: Nursing


I chose Emory because...

I went to Oxford College of Emory and then Emory University for my Bachelors (in Neuroscience and Behavioral Biology). Now, I'm back - but as a grad student! Clearly, I love Emory. Emory has such an empowering community and an abundance of resources. I feel challenged and supported in each aspect of my academic journey at Emory, during both undergrad and grad school!

What has been the highlight of nursing school so far?

Definitely the 1:1 patient interaction. It's one thing to think about patient-care, and it's another thing to actually experience it. It was an out-of-body experience to interact with my first patient, even if it was just taking vitals. We are truly making an impact, and it's incredibly evident during our clinical rotations!

Before nursing school, I was...

I went to Emory for undergrad, and my major was Neuroscience and Behavioral Biology. I was a director for Pre-Health Advising (and a peer mentor!). I mentored disadvantaged high-school students through Emory Pipeline. I also founded my own club, Holistic Hub, to spread positivity and wellness throughout Emory and beyond. Lastly, I was on a belly-dancing dance group!

My favorite thing to do in Atlanta is...

Walking on the belt-line, doing hot yoga, trying new places to eat! I love exploring Atlanta and all the cool hidden gems.
