I am currently pursing a Bachelors of Community Health degree. I believe myself to be a very hardworking and determined student, which will definitely be essential for this work environment. My goal is to gain more experience pertaining to the medical field, specifically learning more about how to understand unique health care needs. Additionally, I'd like to learn more about the significance of an interdisciplinary approach to the development of successful interpersonal and communication skills with patients in specific patient populations.
