Quinnipiac Physician Assistant Program, Class of 2016

I am from Billings, Montana. I graduated from Montana State University in 2011 where I studied Cell Biology and Neuroscience.

I worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant at an acute care hospital and volunteered at a women’s domestic violence shelter in Missoula, Montana prior to starting in the Physician Assistant Program at Quinnipiac University. During my time working at the shelter, I saw the need for more accessible quality healthcare for the women and children I was working with. I am interested in the Urban Service Track because I believe the program will permit me to take clinical knowledge from my Physician Assistant Program and use it to accurately and compassionately care for people in underserved communities. I also look forward to the unique opportunity of working with a group of professionals from across a wide range of medical professions that UST offers.
