“Obtaining a master’s degree at the Gillings School has been a goal that I have worked toward diligently. My undergraduate studies gave me a solid foundation and taught me how to deliver tools to promote healthier lifestyles within a community. By earning this graduate degree, I will be able to act as a leader in improving quality and access of care for all.

Thank you for allowing me to continue my education and obtain the knowledge necessary to give back to a growing population.”
