My favorite thing to do in Atlanta is...

Try different restaurants. I love pasta and Mexican food :). Also, I enjoy doing fun activities with family and friends as well as attend events in Atlanta. I like to have fun and live life to the fullest!

I chose Emory because...

I wanted to attend a top nursing school in Georgia. After deciding that becoming a physician no longer aligned with my goals, I shifted my focus to a career in nursing. I want to become a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner. When I discovered that Emory had a master’s level nursing program, which is the #1 graduate nursing program in the country, I knew that Emory was the right choice for me. Emory’s graduate nursing program allows me to achieve my goals at an accelerated rate.

Before nursing school, I was...

A medical school student in Atlanta, Georgia. In May of 2021, I was a graduate from Spelman College.

What has been the highlight of nursing school so far?

The bonds and friendships that I have formed with my classmates/study group. Also, I have had a very hands-on experience in lab and clinical. So far, my nursing journey has truly been amazing.

I'm passionate about...

Hanging with family and friends Exercising/Fitness Eating/Cooking/trying new foods Playing with my family pets Going shopping Traveling the world Watching movies/shows
