A healthy, active lifestyle doesn’t just interest you; it’s what gets you up at 5 a.m. and fuels you throughout the day. If someone saw your news feed, it would be full of the latest scientific articles on how the body moves and performs.
Your competitive nature means you want more than a degree; you want to be the best in your chosen profession. Why? Because you’re focused on changing lives for the better and being the difference in healthcare.
