He: "I graduated at the top of my class in high school. From then I attended the University of Miami and earned my Associates Degree. While in school, I volunteered at a local clinic to gain experience specifically interacting with patients. I also was part of a local golf team and won several tournaments. After my Associate's degree, I became a Certified Behavioral Health Technician. The more I learned and studied Behavioral Health principles, the more I wanted to have a career in this field- mainly to help patients and make our mental health care system better."
