Career Goals
In the future, I hope to establish myself in the field of business (I know, absolutely nothing to do with anatomy). I would like to go to a prestigious college and obtain a degree in both business and law. With this degree, I will find many different job opportunities available to me and hopefully become a powerful force in the business world. College is in my future; I wish to receive my acceptance letter to UCLA in about a year.

Why take Anatomy?
Anatomy serves as an important subject as the field of biological science grows. Other than the emerging field of biological science and the great opportunities and resources it will provide, biology interests me. In anatomy, I could continue with my interest in biology and the anatomy of the human body. I believe that the more people understand the human body the closer they will be to curing diseases. However, I did not take anatomy to become a doctor or researcher; I took anatomy to better understand the body that God gave me. With a greater knowledge of the human body I have began to apply my knowledge to almost every aspect of my life. In sports, I can now identify hurting muscles and understand the importance of stretching (it warms up the joints and moves around the synovial fluid). I have started to treat my body with more respect, because I have learned how complex and truly amazing the human body is.

About Me
I am still in high school, but I set my goals high. I do the best that I can in all areas of life. Other than keeping up with grades and homework (AP US History), I participate in extracurricular activities. In the fall, I put myself through self-induced torture, aka cross-country. Running provides an outlet for extra energy and an outlet for stress. Lacrosse brings joy to my life as well (who would not like a sport where players get to hit one another?). I participate in Key Club and complete community service hours. I am a part of the yearbook staff and go to JSA meetings to debate worldly issues. At the end of the day, my friends and family are what matter the most.
