About Me

Before coming to Penn, I knew I was interested in health care but to what extent I was not exactly sure. I attended a high school that allowed me to take accelerated courses focused around sciences needed to go into the medical field. It was a great program, which exposed me to various professions in the medical field with regular speakers and trips to the hospital. While it did not force me to choose health care as my profession it definitely prepared me for college. When I first got accepted to Penn’s coordinated dual-degree Nursing and Health Care Management program, I was so excited. How could I go wrong with the best business and nursing schools in the nation?

Extracurricular activities
Resident Advisor, Cohort Executive Board, president of Alpha Kappa Psi professional business fraternity.

Favorite Spot on Campus
Fifth floor tower in the Quad.

3 things I love about Philly
Its abundance of restaurants, shows, and historic sites.

What I love about Wharton/Penn
I have been challenged throughout while gaining many friendships and leadership experience through the activities I have joined. I could not have asked for a greater college experience and all the resources Penn, Wharton, and the Nursing School has offered me.
