What you need to know about Elizabeth?
A
fun, embarrassing, fact about me is that every member in my family (including
myself) has crooked pinkies. I am also a server at Bell Trace, which is an
elderly living community in Bloomington. Having the opportunity to interact
with the elderly population by working at Bell Trace has been one of the most
rewarding and educational experiences of my life. Because of this experience, I
strongly suggest that anyone planning on working in the health sciences should
make an effort to interact with the elderly, either through work or
volunteerism, because this population is growing rapidly among our future
patients and clients.
What are Elizabeth's career goals and/or dream job?
I plan to initially work clinically in a hospital, but eventually hope to branch out into either consulting and/or public health promotion focusing on the childhood obesity epidemic.
