Birthday:
February 24…I’m a Pisces
Favorite color:
green
Current profession:
I am a respiratory therapist (usually in pediatrics, but I’ll play with adults too), but I hope to upgrade soon. If I had unlimited time and resources, I’d like to be a pilot, professional photographer, world traveler, and professional volunteer.
Colleges attended:
Erskine College (BA Spanish and Business Administration)
Greenville Technical College (AHS Respiratory Therapy)
Clemson University (BS Microbiology)
Hobbies:
traveling, of course
flying
reading and learning new things
photography
fencing (I’m a sabre chic)
swimming
animals (especially kitties, but I love most all animals)
playing with plants
kayaking (although I don’t do it often)
hiking (but usually only day or warm weather hikes…not really fond of cold-weather camping)
I have lived most of my life in South Carolina, but have lived in North Carolina as well as Virginia and Tennessee for short periods. I have done volunteer work of some kind since I was in high school. Sometimes it was at a nursing home or women’s shelter; other times it was at animal shelters or teaching English as a second language.
I have always been drawn to medicine as a career and although I got somewhat sidetracked early on in my academic career, I am back on track, finally, and I am excited to keeping on moving one step at a time toward my ultimate goal.
