While interning in the Children's Clinic, I had the incredible opportunity to go and visit the NICU. This program had also introduced me how to write a medical research paper. Mini med school gave me a lot of informative information everyday by health professions which they discussed about the ongoing medical issues and other problems like drug use and criminal issues our community is facing. I have also taken classes in High School such as Ap Biology, Ap chemistry, and AP Psychology that exposes me to everyday medical terminology that health professionals use. Information offered by these classes made it easier to communicate and understand doctors.I have taken every opportunity to better prepare myself to the challenges of the medical field. During the internship, I mainly focused on the nursing branch, I shadowed nurse practitioners and registered nurses in action and how they handled medical issues and was also given the opportunity to learn and ask about their challenges in nursing school and how they had overcome it. I was able to learn about the responsibilities and special skills required to be a nurse and received advices from the nurses on how to be successful in nursing school. I have also been self studying Human Physiology and Anatomy. Its the medical field that best describes me. I love to give back to my

The Closing Bell Speaker Series “Iron Sharpens Iron”: Why Mentoring Matters So Much was presented by Forest Harper. Forest Harper is the current Chief Executive Officer and President of INROADS Inc.

He attended Morgan State University on a football scholarship. His plan was to become a professional football player. He suffered two knee injuries that ended his football career. He graduated from Morgan State University with a Bachelors of Arts in Social Work. After graduation, he joined the Army and served as a Lieutenant.

Before becoming the president of INROADS, Harper worked at Pfizer for twenty-eight years. He started as a pharmaceutical sales representative and later became the Vice President of Capability Development in Worldwide Public Affairs and Policy. He was the only African American in his division. This fact inspired him to join INROADS and become a mentor to minority college student.

Excellent mentors, along with the opportunities I have been provided to advance my education are my motivating factors to become a better nurse. When one door closed, such as when I broke my back and was no longer able to provide bedside care, another would open, such as the opportunity to work in the field of research. By working to develop drug and device therapies, I am able to reach far beyond the patients I would treat during a hospital shift. I am now working in a realm where there it is possible to provide life-changing therapies to millions.

The golds or the outcomes that I hope will occur as a result of my mentoring relationship are being able to grow no only as a person but also as a professional. Also, I want to be a lifelong person and always have a good attitude and look the positive side of negative situations. Another goal is to show the care that I will have for my mentor by always respecting his point of view. The desirable attributes that I possess is that I have a good sense of humor. However, I am a responsible person and respectful. Also, I am social and I like to converse about anything I like to fill the silence. Also, I am friendly and an easy going person. The ways that I will imply these attributes with my mentor is by always having a smile and have a good attitude.

Growing up I knew that I wanted to study science and explore the human body with the goal of helping people. With exploration of career options later in middle school, I realized that medicine was the path for me. My parents did not achieve Bachelor degrees and while I knew logically that they would support me, I did not have the confidence to pursue such a big dream. In high school, I became more and more involved and worked outrageously

I have been influenced by my family, friends, and medical physicians. Having a career in the medical field will allow me to help and treat people with different

Even though I was upset and confused about my future for multiple weeks, I began to reflect on my strengths. After multiple sessions of deep reflection, I discovered my deep passion for helping others going through similar tough situations. Through my personal experiences with physicians and my interest/success in medical science, I decided that obtaining a medical education will allow me to positively affect a large number of people. This was the most difficult personal decision I have had to make because choosing to pursue either route was risky. If I attempted to play professional soccer and failed, I would have pushed back my schooling.

During my first set of volunteering opportunities I helped at the annual Fort Worth Independent School District College Fair where I worked as an Informational Guide by directing families and answering any questions about the event. I worked at the Walk to End Alzheimer 5K as a volunteer where my job description was helping those who weren’t registered register for the race, set up and clean-up of the event, and passing out the flowers. While I was working for the Academy 4 mentoring program as Dagget Elementary School in Fort Worth I.S.D. I was assigned a fourth grader where we went over the lesson and story tied in to our theme topic to help better prepare her sharpening her social and leadership skills through planned activities and acting more a guide. The Alzheimer 5K and College Fair only lasted a day, while, the Academy 4 mentoring program will last the whole school year; where we will meet once a month. The Walk to End Alzheimer had the biggest impact on me.

I have devoted my life to being like my mother. I want to make a positive difference in the lives of those who need it the most. This set of mind should take me to greater heights than any possible alternative option. This is why I pursue the medical career, my dream is to provide health, hospitality, and care to those who need it every day of my life. I have worked to achieve the greatest possible grades I can possibly take in order to fulfill my dream of becoming a healthcare provider. My environment has influenced me by allowing me to not only see but to feel the emotions of

With the development of the more organic and less formal organisational structures the role of mentors has shifted with these changes. Unlike previously where mentors where seen as formal trainers who taught newcomers the processes and got them acquainted with the cultures and the systems within the organisation. Which required good interpersonal skills and a good knowledge of the activity or tasks the mentee would have to undertake, and be able to effectively relay or demonstrate the tasks or activities to the mentee. As opposed to more recently where a mentor would have to be more of an emotional counselor and demonstrate more skills than were traditionally required from

Our first mentoring session was this week, and it was very successful. I learned very valuable information about the mentees, such as their dreams, aspirations, and interests, by simply speaking and interacting with them. There was a variety of interests and goals among the mentees, ranging from the aspiration to be a model to the dream of becoming a famous basketball player. In addition to learning about their interests, I also learned more about the mentees’ individual strengths, so that I will be able to help them develop those areas in the future. As a result of a survey the Executive Director created, I was also able to learn about what the mentees hope to gain from the mentoring program. Concerning the agency itself, I learned that the mentees who had already completed the program last year will be integrated with the new group of mentees that will be completing the program this year.

My journey began when my family received a phone call that changed our lives forever. My grandfather, the heart and joy of our family, had been diagnosed with gastric carcinoma. At the time, my grandfather had three weeks to live unless he sought treatment immediately. I was brought up in a foreign family and am the first to attend college. So naturally, I was depended upon by family members to speak with medical professionals about his treatments, medications, and recommended dosages. Over the next several weeks, I comforted my grandfather, translated what his physicians were counseling him on, and started a medication regime alongside with his local pharmacist that increased his lifespan. During this whole process, I came to an important realization that the medical field was my passion, which lead to my decision to become a Pharmacist. Knowing what my ultimate goal was, it made it easier to choose my curriculum for college.
