Hello! I'm Mariangela "Mari" Cobian, a dedicated undergraduate student at the University of Texas at El Paso, currently pursuing my Bachelor's of Science in Nursing. I am also a UTEP alumna, and I graduated with honors in Biological Sciences, achieving summa cum laude recognition. Driven by my commitment to education, I serve as a Remote Tutor, actively contributing to enhancing STEM learning experiences for high school and undergraduate students. Beyond academics, my passion for healthcare propels my aspiration to become a compassionate and devoted future nurse. Beyond my academic endeavors, I held the role of Vice President and Historian at the Collegiate Double T Health Professions Honor Society. In this capacity, I honed my professional skills while collaborating with fellow pre-health students, nurturing an environment of support and teamwork. I eagerly anticipate engaging in upcoming clinical opportunities, continuing to contribute actively to our organization's mission. Furthermore, I enthusiastically volunteer as a camp counselor at Sunny Farm Therapeutic Horsemanship. This opportunity enables me to nurture my love for children, especially those with special needs, as I contribute to creating enriching experiences. Committed to making a positive impact on both academic and healthcare fronts, I'm enthusiastically anticipating the exciting journey ahead.
