A lot of my interests are connected to organizing, data management, information systems, understanding culture of diverse population, teamwork, helping community, researching health findings, and working outdoors. According to these interest, over time I have considered Administrative assistant, Nursing home administrator, Data management, and community coordinator as occupations for my future career. My interest with there occupations are related directly to my past experiences. When I had an opportunity of working with older adults at Buckingham Nursing home, I was very happy to go to work everyday and cover two sifts in a row sometimes. I liked working with the patients at Buckingham and the environment was very pleasing to me. I felt accomplished to be helping our seniors with daily living activities including feeding them …show more content…
Even though I’m not quiet sure if I would like to manage data as a part of my career job, I am sure this is one of the career job I would be good at. Also, currently while I am working at Oak Street Health as an Intern, I have witness my clinical administrator’s responsibilities. I think I would definitely consider administrative assistance job as my career to begin with. I believe if I start from administrative assistant job, I can be very good at taking responsibilities as a healthcare administrator.

    It’s amazing how much time is given to elder care but without it many older adults would suffer. With the number of older Americans growing there is an increase need for care but the appropriate funding is required on both ends financially and more support and education is need among staff and administration to actually supply the proper essentials to the aging population. Being a CNA goes beyond caring for sick patients and keeping their patients healthy in a variety of setting as Ai-Jen Poo mentioned in the audio interview incorporating those attributes of dignity and value into the work and allowing the geriatric population to be surrounded by love care and connection is vital to getting older. Nursing aides are the backbone of these health…

    I was very reserved when I first started high school, but after attending a leadership training conference in 2011, my personality, my confidence, and my overall life outlook changed for the better. Ever since, I have returned to that conference each summer as a counselor in order to help others find their voices as well. At around the same time, I began working at the Sweet Spot Bake Shoppe, helping customers, preparing products for sale, taking specialty orders, and assisting in regular tasks. After about three years at the bakery, I headed up to Connecticut for college as an Honors student, undecided in terms of a major. It entailed me taking many classes across multiple departments, getting involved in several clubs, and attending diverse lectures, but after freshman year, I realized my true interests lie in business, specifically management information systems.…

    I would like to apply for Special Assistant. I work well with others, but am also self-motivated and can get things done without someone constantly reminding me what I need to do. I am the president of the Zero Waste club, and an honor student. I take pride in everything I do, and strive to go above and beyond what is expected from me. Working well with others along with good communication is a strong suit of mine. In soccer I am center defense (sweeper), so I have to tell the outside defenders who their mark is, and make sure the other team does not get past us. In tennis I play doubles, so I constantly communicating to the other player to make sure one of us has the ball, or to tell them that it is out so they do not have to work as hard.…

    My initial motivation was to study medicine. However, this novelty of an idea wore off as I have learned that the road to success and pursuit of happiness in life is not necessarily a straight one. This has encouraged me to follow my heart no matter how daunting the journey can be. William James once said “the greatest discovery of my generation is that a human being has the power to alter his life by his attitude”. It is deeply rooted in this philosophy that I desire to become a physician assistant (PA) where I hope to provide quality healthcare to the underprivileged, an area of medicine, which I have noticed to be dramatically underserved.…
