My interest in nursing began at the age of 7 when my brother was born with a congenital heart defect. Within weeks of being born he had open heart surgery. Personally seeing how medical science was able to save his life gained my interest in this field. At a young age I started as a goal keeper, then moved to forward and for the last four years have been a center back. I'm also currently the captain of my academy team and school team. These qualities I think aid me in being a good candidate for a collegiate team.
