Bio

Hi, I’m Lauren, and I’m diving into the world of diagnostic medical sonography, inspired by a deeply personal journey. My mom’s battle with breast cancer opened my eyes to the crucial role of medical imaging. Seeing how vital it was for her care made me want to be part of that process and help others in similar situations. I’m currently studying at Cambridge College of Healthcare & Technology, where I’m learning all about ultrasound technology and patient care. Being a woman in healthcare, I’m especially driven to bring empathy and dedication to my work. These scholarships would help me continue my studies and advance in my ultrasound tech journey. I’m excited about the chance to make a difference in patient’s lives with the skills I'm developing!
