Elizabeth Rizzotto Research Paper

I am a member of my high school’s student council, Girl Scouts, and also the chaplain of my school’s drama club.

In the small town of Dickinson in Texas, on August 9th 1990, 8-year-old Jennifer Schuett was abducted by Dennis Earl Bradford. After being taken straight from her bed through her bedroom window, Bradford attempted to calm Schuett by reassuring her he was an undercover officer. Bradford then strangled, raped and lacerated Shuett’s neck, leaving her to bleed out in a field. Shuett recalls him asking her “Am I scaring you little girl? Am I scaring you?” Schuett was left helpless and immobile until she was found by children playing a game of tag. Bradford was not identified or arrested for his actions until 19 years later. However, before he could be tried, Bradford committed suicide in his jail cell.

Five years after graduation, I see myself, using the education in chemical engineering to springboard my career as a nurse anesthetist by going into medical school. Then hopefully I can continue my education and become a nurse anesthetist after

The only extracurricular activity I am a part of as of now, is Key club. I am an active member and commit approximately 20 hours of community service a semester. In Middle School I was a part of NJHS, Student Congress, and WEB (middle school equivalent to Link Crew). Within the next year, I plan on joining NHS as well as Link Crew.

of clinical rotations will help me set a definite goal for my future. I know that I generally want to be in the surgery room, but I'm not entirely set on one career. At this point in my life, I would like to become an anesthesiologist because I like to concentrate on one thing and I would like to be in the surgery room, but my hands are too shaky to be a surgeon. I would like to attend Texas A&M University and major in biochemistry and minor in pre med, so that I could get into a medical school.

In ten years from now I can see myself as a certified Physicians Assistant in the specialty of Urgent Care in a hospital here in San Antonio, Texas.

The first organization I joined was Sigma Psi Omega. I was Social co-chair during 2014-2015. In this role I helped the chair take minutes and roll for the committee in which we plan events such as the Full Moon Fever Dance. I then became Historian 2015-2016. In this role I take pictures and write down what we are currently doing for next generations to see. The second organization I joined is Student Government Association. I first started out as a Senator but was quickly inducted as Secretary in Spring 2014 during my first semester in Student Government and continued to be Secretary through Spring 2015. Then I became President 2015-2016. I have loved every second of it, and feel that I have made an impact on Student Government here at USAO. We are updating the constitution this year. We went to two conferences in the fall and will host a conference here at the university. We are also working on what we can for the people who view the legislation and make the decisions to take us more seriously. I have also attended Haven the whole time I have been at USAO as well, and just started craft crafting club towards the end of 2015.

What organizations or activities (community, school, church, lodge, social, professional, academic, sports) are you involved in? “I am a high school senior preparing to go into college next year. I am an altar server and attend church every Sunday. I am an active member of youth group in church, member of Indian club in the school. I also volunteer in American red cross and shadow a cardiologist two hours/ week.

While my passion for classes and subjects has varied over the years, one topic never ceases to pique my interests. I have loved every single literature project I have worked on. While some other students were moaning about being forced to read, I was too busy being sucked into the story to hear them. The art of storytelling through literature is a subject that I will never lose my passion for. This passion had extended from my academic career into my personal life very early on. Besides my seashell collection mentioned above, my other pride and joy is my classic literature collection. Instead of reading The Hunger Games like the other students in my school, I was reading Frankenstein. In my senior year of highschool, I am able to take Advanced

The school that I really want to attend to is University of Southern California in LA . First of all, I would like to attend USC because I want to get a successful career. Attending USC will help me prepare for the job that I want, which is to be a surgeon. USC is a private school and has a medical school where I can study surgery. I want to be a surgeon because I really find the human body to be interesting. I would love the opportunity to investigate how the body works and learn about the organs. Studying the human body really captures my attention and I want to explore it in depth. USC has one of the best medical schools and it would help me reach my goal of being a professional

As the youngest child of my three siblings, I’m the only one who desires to attend a four year university, and continue to a college of medicine. My aspirations are expensive, but it’s what I’ve dreamed of all my life. I’ve always been interested in medicine, I remember my uncle telling me to go into a field where I’ll be paid “big bucks”. But, I didn’t agree with him. I wanted a career that I would enjoy every day, experience something new, solve problems, and most of all, to help people in anyway I can. Initially I wanted to be an anesthesiologist, but after volunteering in the Post Anesthesia Care Unit at my local hospital I was surrounded by anesthesiologists. Although the job of an anesthesiologist is important, it no longer interests

Some of the bigger organizations I take part in include marching band, FFA, and NHS. I play sousaphone and hold a position as a squad leader. I am also involved in both concert and pep band. The local FFA chapter has greatly impacted my involvement in community affairs. Our chapter is greatly focused on service honors because we hold two blood drives, a petting zoo, and a community breakfast each year.

-In four years, I see myself in my first year of medical school or graduate school preparing for a S.T.E.M relating field.

Completing my residency years and starting my career is something I’m looking forward to doing. Becoming an anesthesiologist isn’t something that’s easy to do. The reason why I say that I will be here in the next 10 years is because I have to go through medical school as well. I also plan to be on my own and have my own place at this time in my life.

My long term goal is to pursue a career as a General Internal Medicine and complete a Gastroenterology Fellowship. To me, this means delivering "state-of-the-art" clinical care to my patients while contributing to the evolution of medicine through education and research. I have wanted to be a doctor since childhood. To me, being a doctor means goodness of the heart and dedication to healing. My parents valued education and rigorous work ethics. They taught me that I could be all I wanted. This upbringing, hard work, and commitment landed me at the top of my class throughout school.
