I have always known the importance of serving others, however during my previous medical brigade to Ghana I have seen the change that medical attention brings in not only one individual's well-being, but to a community as a whole. I am passionate about bringing a change to society itself, by touching one life, a link is created to another person and another and another, as the link of lives touched grows from one person to the next. I hope to continue providing medical attention and public health information to individuals in Panama on my next brigade, and in my future as a medical professional.
