As a first-year student at Northwest Vista College, I am pursuing a career as a diagnostic medical sonographer by majoring in sonography.
I am a committed student who gives everything I do in school and in life my all. One of my top priorities when it comes to obstacles is finding new ways to solve each difficulty that comes my way.
AS a first generation college student it is an honor to be able to express my gratitude for all of the sacrifices they have made for me and to plan to accomplish what they were unable to start.

One change I would make in our healthcare system would eliminating the use of animals for medical testing. More than 110 million animals are killed annually in U.S. labs for use in biology classes, professional training, trials driven by curiosity, and assessment on chemicals, food, and medications. Animal testing has always been a controversial subject in the medical industry. It is essential to the creation and safety of medications, but data has shown that over time the sucess rates in new and effective medication has decreased.
The effects that laboratory experiments and environments have on animal behavior could interfere with the data of study. Animals used in laboratories are kept in cages for the length of their lives, most commonly in spaces without windows. Animals kept in imprisonment may be constructed from displaying species-typical behaviors, which causes anxiety and deviant behavior causing experiment results to be less valid. Biomedical labs are known for their fake lighting, human-made noises, and cramped living conditions. One of the discomfort types created in laboratories is anxiety.
A significant barrier to translational dependability is the lack of a link between animal models of human diseases and those conditions. Artificial animal replicas of human illnesses are constantly created, however the difficulties of duplicating anything even somewhat close to the difficulty of human illnesses in these copies significantly limits the utility of these models. The failure to translate the outcomes of an animal experiment to the clinic may occur even though its design and execution are sound and consistent between animal and human.
Medications must be tested to ensure their safety under typical and reasonably anticipated usage circumstances. This is a basic requirement. Recent legislative reforms, however, are pushing scientists to create/use non-animal alternative approaches to ensure human protection . Artificial tissues have the potential to replace animals in studies of the normal physiology and pathology of human tissue as well as serve as innovative models for toxin screening in the pharmaceutical industries.
Due to studies, Vitro and Silico tests can predict some negative consequences more accurately than animal models. Artificial Silico models are created using simulations of human heart cells, the risk of drug-induced cardiac arrhythmia in humans was predicted with 89% accuracy, whereas earlier animal studies had shown a 75% accuracy. Significant improvements in the use of technology due to the use of human cells and tissues have allowed for a greater grasp and approach to treating human illness.
These modern approaches also incorporate groups of human cells to evaluate the possible danger of drug reactions generated by prospective medications, in addition to pretty simple human cells utilized in testing for skin sensitization and hormonal effects. Skin sensitivity data from both human and animal sources are compared, numerous non-animal testing techniques, such as Vitro, Chemico, and Silico inputs, have shown similar or greater performance to the animal localized lymph node assay.
In conclusion It is obvious that there are still major obstacles to be overcome, and it would be absurd to understate how difficult it is to develop alternatives for many hazardous endpoints. However, it would also be negligent to ignore the opportunity that tissue cloning presents to advance scientific research, safeguard human health, and reduce the use of animals. These tissues are useful for toxicity testing and disease modeling because to their improved functioning, which could potentially minimize or eliminate the need for animal testing. It is unknown if this is true for all endpoints, but it is safe to assume that models created in the future based on these exploratory efforts will contain the required capabilities to cure future diseases.

As a first-generation college student, it can be challenging to put myself out there and not let obstacles get in the way, by struggling due to my parents not graduating high school I lack my parents' proper guidance in pursuing a higher education leaving me unsure and stranded not knowing if I'm going about things correctly, but one thing my parents do provide for me is their love and support. My parents do what they do best, which is to offer me words of encouragement and advice each step of the way whenever I feel like giving up and have taught me to never quit. If I fall short, at least I know that I gave it my all and am determined to try again—not just in school, but how I will be taking my path forward in life.
Our Hispanic community has been known for being hard-working and taking whatever we can get to bring our family forward. Many families immigrate with nothing, including my own, but find ways to provide for themselves in any way they can. But have trouble communicating in a country that doesn't speak their native language.
So naturally, my morals are to help my community by giving back in any way I can, however I wasn't sure how. I happened to come across Diagnostic medical sonography, which caught my interest. Observing how sonographers collaborate with medical experts has motivated me to pursue my interests while also assisting in patient care. The first stage in treating patients and the most crucial factor in having them recover from their discomfort is being able to diagnose the reason for their pain . For the past few months, I've been observing a sonographer at a clinic as she builds strong relationships with her patients while advancing their diagnoses. This profession is not easy but it is worthwhile, I will be helping my Spanish-speaking community by translating every stage of their journey making sure they are heard and cared for while finding a reason for their pain. By being their light in a dark tunnel I will put pieces together to finish their puzzle and have the satisfaction of finding their solution. Witnessing the room filled with joy and purity when finding their cause of pain is what motivates me to pursue this career. I also plan on doing fetal ultrasounds and be part of the precious times when parents get to witness their child grow and go through life's stages.
In order to make my dreams and goals a reality to help and offer my patients all the resources and support I can, I intend to finish my training with scholarships and open my own abdominal and fetal ultrasound clinic. One step at a time, not just for my Hispanic community but for everyone. Where I will provide free/affordable abdominal and fetal ultrasounds without requiring insurance for everyone who desires one. Millions of people suffer from internal health conditions in the United States, and many of them are unable to obtain the necessary treatment because they lack insurance or the necessary resources. Assisting my community by translating, giving them ultrasounds, and ensuring they are healthy. As well as a yearly checkup to ensure everything is in order, forming those lifelong ties, and the assurance that they are not alone. Creating a supportive relationship with me.

As a first-generation college student, it can be challenging to put myself out there and not let obstacles get in the way, by struggling due to my parents not graduating high school I lack my parents' proper guidance in pursuing a higher education leaving me unsure and stranded not knowing if I'm going about things correctly, but one thing my parents do provide for me is their love and support. My parents do what they do best, which is to offer me words of encouragement and advice each step of the way whenever I feel like giving up and have taught me to never quit. If I fall short, at least I know that I gave it my all and am determined to try again—not just in school, but how I will be taking my path forward in life.
Our Hispanic community has been known for being hard-working and taking whatever we can get to bring our family forward. Many families immigrate with nothing, including my own, but find ways to provide for themselves in any way they can. But have trouble communicating in a country that doesn't speak their native language.
So naturally, my morals are to help my community by giving back in any way I can, however I wasn't sure how. I happened to come across Diagnostic medical sonography, which caught my interest. Observing how sonographers collaborate with medical experts has motivated me to pursue my interests while also assisting in patient care. The first stage in treating patients and the most crucial factor in having them recover from their discomfort is being able to diagnose the reason for their pain . For the past few months, I've been observing a sonographer at a clinic as she builds strong relationships with her patients while advancing their diagnoses. This profession is not easy but it is worthwhile, I will be helping my Spanish-speaking community by translating every stage of their journey making sure they are heard and cared for while finding a reason for their pain. By being their light in a dark tunnel I will put pieces together to finish their puzzle and have the satisfaction of finding their solution. Witnessing the room filled with joy and purity when finding their cause of pain is what motivates me to pursue this career. I also plan on doing fetal ultrasounds and be part of the precious times when parents get to witness their child grow and go through life's stages.
In order to make my dreams and goals a reality to help and offer my patients all the resources and support I can, I intend to finish my training with scholarships and open my own abdominal and fetal ultrasound clinic. One step at a time, not just for my Hispanic community but for everyone. Where I will provide free/affordable abdominal and fetal ultrasounds without requiring insurance for everyone who desires one. Millions of people suffer from internal health conditions in the United States, and many of them are unable to obtain the necessary treatment because they lack insurance or the necessary resources. Assisting my community by translating, giving them ultrasounds, and ensuring they are healthy. As well as a yearly checkup to ensure everything is in order, forming those lifelong ties, and the assurance that they are not alone. Creating a supportive relationship with me.

McClendon Leadership Award
To me, leadership entails helping those you care about develop into their best selves. When people are at their most vulnerable, leadership is demonstrated by their mentors, teachers, and peers that motivate us and help us establish a vision. Even when times are difficult and we feel that our struggles are worthless and make no difference. When we feel hopeless, leaders take charge of us and make sure we are moving in the right direction, remaining by our side every step of the journey.
As they watch us flourish every day, you realize that it's not the power that makes you a leader, it's the service you provide for your peers. The knowledge and advice you share with others so they can be successful and follow their ambitions . Representing and educating us on how to stand up for ourselves. Leadership is an action, not a position; it involves being aware of the consequences of failure while nevertheless moving forward and trying again.
It's in our nature to follow somone who gives us direction and a better idea of how to achieve our objectives. But our society doesn't need managers, ones who don't care about performance and only on details and orders. We need to be surrounded by leaders who uphold consistency and integrity for the team continually finding new ways to evolve. Concentrating on the larger picture, the vision, and the traits needed to advance the community as a whole. By looking at our weak points, communicating and finding solutions to guide us through the dark and help us reach the light at the end of the tunnel. Leadership is all around us, occuring at all levels, not simply among those who hold formally designated "leadership positions." varied people, cultures, and contexts have varied definitions of what leadership is.
Thats why leadership is important to me, because it provides change and a course of action by taking charge of a challenge and finding a solution as a team, driving for the best impact for our community. As well as setting the tone for our peers and sharing wisdom and behavior on how to solve problems on their own and become leaders themselves continuing on their legacy to greatness. Developing not just the company or team but everyone involved into becoming their best selves even during their times of struggle or failure to enable confidence, vision, and innovation and eventually allowing for each team member to take the lead collectively.

Fuerza y Ganas Scholarship
WinnerI'm establishing a clinic where I will provide free abdominal and fetal ultrasounds without requiring insurance for everyone who desires one. Millions of people suffer from abdominal problems in the United States, and many of them are unable to obtain the necessary treatment because they lack insurance or the necessary funds due to inflation. I especially want to assist my Hispanic community who have migrated to the United States by giving them ultrasounds and ensuring they are healthy. As well as a yearly checkup to ensure everything is in order, forming those lifelong ties, and the assurance that they have a supportive relationship with me.
My job objective has always been to be able to assist others, but I wasn't sure how. I happened to come across sonography, which caught my interest. Observing how sonographers collaborate with medical experts has motivated me to pursue my interests while also assisting in patient care. The first stage in treating patients and the most important factor in having them recover from their pain is being able to determine the reason they are suffering. For the past few months, I've been observing a sonographer at a sonography clinic as she builds lovely relationships with her clients and advances their diagnoses. This profession is not simple, but it is worthwhile since as a healthcare provider, you are there to help them and communicate with them at every stage of their journey making sure they are heard and cared for. I've also been a part of the ability to reveal the genders of the parents' unborn children and witnessing the room filled with joy and purity is what motivates me to pursue this career. I'm grateful to be a part of the precious times when parents get to witness their child grow and go through life's stages.
As a first-generation college student, it can be challenging to put myself out there and not let obstacles get in the way, as well as struggling sometimes due to unfortunate conditions I lack my parents' proper guidance leaving me unsure of whether I'm going about things correctly, but one thing my parents do provide for me is their support. My parents do what they do best, which is to offer me words of encouragement and advice each step of the way whenever I feel like giving up and have taught me to never quit and give it my all. If I fall short, at least I know that I tried, and am determined to try again—not just in school, but how I will be taking my path forward in life. In order to help and offer my patients all the resources and support I can, I intend to finish my training and open my own abdominal and fetal ultrasound clinic. One step at a time, not just for my Hispanic community but for everyone.
