WinnerBio
I am a first-generation Congolese American who majored in Health Sciences/ Public Health in my family. I am interested in pediatrics and global health and aspire to be a Doctor someday by positively impacting other people's lives. I am in my last year pursuing my bachelor's degree in public health. After my bachelor's, I plan to obtain my Master's degree and then continue my doctorate. I am more passionate about helping families each step of the way and taking care of others. I love caring for others, listening to their stories, being compassionate, caring for patients, and showing trust. I am a great candidate because each experience in my life has uplifted me and made me more assertive with God's help. Growing up, I babysat neighbors' kids, nephews, and nieces. Losing my father at ten has also interested me in pursuing healthcare. I am a risk-taker, willing to learn more and adapt to whichever change comes my way. I am truly grateful and will never take it for granted to have immigrant parents who decided to leave their country to offer me a better education. However, as a first-generation student without parental support, I worked full-time during my academic years to fulfill my dream. Becoming an educated black female physician woman in America is what I aspire to become one day. Thank you, bold.org, for allowing us to advance in our goals and achieve them while becoming debt-free.
