Linda Hoang

UConn School of Nursing, Class of 2016

I was born in Hartford, CT. and was raised in Hartford for five years and West Hartford for sixteen years. I have volunteered at a soup kitchen and I currently work at a CVS pharmacy visited predominately by ethnic minorities. I have an interest in being involved with the Urban Service Track because I want to help people have a better sense of self and self-esteem. I strongly believe that being involved in UST will enable me to make a difference in peoples’ lives not only medically but also mentally. Being financially unstable, an immigrant, or underprivileged are all very stressful situations but through my involvement in UST, I hope I will have the chance to provide to those in such situations with sufficient and humane healthcare.
