Summary
Hello! I'm Edward Washington, and I'm passionat about helping others. As a member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Inc., I've always loved people and put others before myself. I'm a transfer student from ETBU and now study as LSUS. My dream of entering a healthcare profession was solidified while working at HeartWays Hospice, where I found my true calling. I'm particularly interested in the LSU Allied Health Cardiopulmonary Program. As a person with asthma it sparked a desire to help others improve their breathing too. Being a student now here a LSUS drives me toward this program. My commitment to caring for others is also driven by my love for God and His people, making me a compassionate and empathetic presence in any setting.
