Notre Dame has fostered my confidence and helped me develop tools and skills to excelling in any circumstance. I am looking forward to success in graduate school and achieving my dreams of becoming a doctor.

Notre Dame has given me numerous opportunities to practice my leadership and teamwork abilities. Nursing is a profession which requires both, as nurses are the ones that advocate for the patients and must work together in order to promote patient safety.

The professors gave me invaluable feedback on lessons, and my internship experience allowed me to practice my teaching skills in a real classroom setting. Notre Dame gave me the skills and opportunity to cultivate those skills in my four years here. I found my passion and my calling, now I'm off to pursue it.
