What interested you in health care?
My interest in healthcare begins with the influence of my mother’s career as an emergency room registered nurse. I always admired my mother for her commitment to helping others, but my skills and interest do not involve the direct delivery of healthcare services. A career in healthcare management blends my interest in healthcare with my skill set.
Why did you choose Iowa?
The University of Iowa offered the most cost-effective way to join a nationally ranked program devoted to training the best healthcare executives.
Favorite Grad School Moment
Every day contains a moment to prepare me better for my future.
Hobbies
Almost anything outside and live music.
