Career Achievements:
I'm at Creighton University School of Medicine working toward my M.D. While there, I have been active as class treasurer, secretary of the student chapter of AMWA, a medical advocate for the YWCA and various volunteer activities.

How did Dana help prepare you for your career or graduate school?
Dana provided a stable, caring environment where I could develop into a strong, well rounded individual, which is necessary to endure the rigors of medical school. I came away from Dana with a strong foundation in the sciences and a liberal arts education, which better prepares me to care for patients.

What do remember most about your time at Dana?
The professors at Dana were always willing to help me. If I had a question about a lecture or an assignment, my professors always had open doors. The professors were always friendly and dedicated to our educations. I also like the exposure to things/classes outside of my majors. I have an appreciation for art and literature that I wouldn't have received at other schools.
