Bio

I am a first-generation Congolese American with a bachelor's degree in Community Health/Public Health. I am interested in Women's Health, particularly in maternal and infant care, as well as global health within the context of mental health. I aspire to become a doctor and make a positive impact on others' lives. I will start a 2-year accelerated nursing program in August 2026, then continue my doctoral studies. I am more passionate about helping families at every step and about caring for others. I love caring for patients, listening to their stories, showing compassion, and building trust. I am a great candidate because each experience in my life has uplifted me and strengthened my faith in God. Losing my father at ten has also impacted my pursuit of healthcare. I am a risk-taker, willing to learn more and adapt to whichever change comes my way. As a first-generation student without sufficient support, I work full-time while studying and continue to work toward my dream. It's challenging but doable. I remain committed to my goal. Thank you, Bold.org, for helping us move forward and accomplish our dreams step by step with less debt.
