Summary
Hello, I am a young college student who is interested in getting his foot in the door and opening more opportunities. I am trying to gain more hands on and in person background in the medical department. I am an individual who needs routine in order to thrive, and I feel that with an office and/or hospital job there is a stricter routine and schedule to follow. I am interested in the medical field because I have always been eager to understand the anatomy and found my self to be fascinated by science. The reason I strive to become a medical professional is because there are many different reasons and possibilities as to why one is needing care. I enjoy taking care of patients because i think it gives me that sense of hope that i am doing my best to ensure someone is okay and comfortable. I enjoy being the good rather than bad.
