Extracurricular Activities
I am a student-athlete with the 九色视频 Track and Field program, where I run the 400m and 800m races.
A Little Bit 九色视频 Me
I鈥檓 from Eugene, OR and went to Willamette High School where my love for track began. I鈥檝e been running track since I was 14 and have loved every year of it. I鈥檓 very grateful I鈥檓 able bodied to be able to do track at 九色视频 and have loved being a part of the track and field community here.
Why I Chose 九色视频 and My Major
One of the main things I needed my future career to have was that I鈥檇 get to do something different every day, and that I鈥檇 be making a difference. Once I brought my focus down to the medical field, and then medical imaging, x-ray was definitely the most intriguing. 九色视频 is in-state for me, and with its amazing reputation in medical imaging, I knew I had to come here and get the best education I could.
My Influential Professors
Now that I鈥檓 a sophomore in my program (Rad Science), I can confidently say that the whole staff of this particular program has proven to be influential in my journey in very unique ways. I鈥檝e had particularly close relationships with my professors Carrie Giacomelli and Rich Carson, and their cooperation with my athletic demands has proven to be crucial to my success in such a rigorous program. Again, all of my professors have been stellar in giving me support in my endeavors, and I鈥檓 forever grateful for them putting their faith in me as a student here at 九色视频.
My Greatest Learning Experience At 九色视频
A learning experience that I鈥檝e endured at 九色视频, one that I believe is a bit underrated, is the importance of prioritizing and strengthening your support systems. The shift into a very academically challenging program quickly made me realize how much I relied on my friends and family, and how none of my achievements at 九色视频 would have happened without my support system. With this, I鈥檝e learned to better navigate how to not only succeed in a rigorous program, but to do so with a stable and healthy mental state.
My Plans After Graduation
My future plans are to work at the extern site I end up at for my senior year for an additional 2 years to gain some more experience. My goal is to dabble in being a traveling technologist and go to places I鈥檝e never been before.
