3. Family
• My family consists of My Dad, Mom, and sister
and myself. I have 3 cousins that I consider my
little brothers but sadly they’re in the
Dominican Republic.
• My role model is my mother, the reason why
is because she never stopped striving to the
top and to the best.

7. What are your responsibilities
• In the nurses office I help filing the new files
into the cabinets. I filed medical papers with
sezuires, diabetes, bladder problems,etc.
• In the office I update the students files and
send mail to parents and other schools.

8. How I’ve grown
• High school was definitely a journey for me from
freshman year to today as a senior, I realized so many
things and learned so many within these 4 years.
• One thing I will never forget is when I was a freshman
and a teacher told me that I will never make it out of
high school and I will end up like another “Amboy girl”
pregnant and dropped out and be a statistic that is
when I changed my ways.
• The people who helped me as a person is my parents,
Mr.Cesilia, Mr.Rodriguez, Ms.Alves and Mr.Velez and
Nyeisha Thomas my friend since middle school.

10. How has your internship helped you
grow as a person
• It gave me more reasons why I should be in
the medical field and enjoy it. When I came to
my internship I learned and realized what I'm
truly capable of and made my self esteem and
motivation so high that I have high
expectations. I don’t regret at all doing this
internship because I grew to learn and know
that I have so many talents that I never seen
nor realized I had.. I gained the confidence
and grew as an adult.

11. Would I come back?
• No I wouldn’t go back because
