"I chose to pursue a career in nursing because my mom and aunt are both nurses. I love caring for others and helping make them comfortable when going through a difficult time in their lives. I grew up hearing the stories of the patients my mom and aunt had helped and even those they could not. Still, I could tell they truly enjoyed their jobs, and I think it's in my blood. I cannot imagine choosing another career path."

"I knew I wanted a career working in this industry but was not sure in what capacity. I chose to pursue a career as a Clinical Trial Coordinator after researching the different roles of the clinical trials team. The Clinical Trial Coordinator position utilizes my hard and soft skills and seemed the best fit for me. I love that I am involved with the patients and that my work ensures the safety of the participants and the integrity of the data collected."
