Hello, scholarship committee. My name is Haley Ruth Blohm, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to tell you more about myself! To begin, I am currently a senior at Alleman Catholic High School in Rock Island, IL. Following my graduation this May, I plan to continue my education at the University of Dubuque in the fall semester of 2026. There, I intend to earn my Bachelor's degree in the science of nursing with a double minor in business and psychology. After college, I hope to positively impact the families I care for in my career as a registered pediatric nurse by providing high-quality support and guidance. In addition to my educational goals, I also aspire to travel the world and one day start a family of my own. A few pastimes I enjoy include baking, hiking, swimming, volunteering, and watching movies.
