Brandy Mattingly is a 20-year-old student pursuing her education and career goals in nursing and healthcare. She has been attending Midlands Technical College full-time since 2014 and will complete her Certified Nursing Assistant course in July 2015. Mattingly relies on student loans to fund her education costs as she is currently unemployed and only receives lottery assistance. This scholarship would allow her to enroll in the Patient Care Technician program and help relieve her financial burden from student loans. Upon completing the program, her goal is to apply for jobs as a Patient Care Technician and continue advancing her career in healthcare.
