My interest in the field of Speech-Language Pathology stem from my desires to build bonds with people and help others in daily communication. I have a natural desire and ease for making connections with individuals of different age groups and backgrounds. What I like about my profession is the wide variety of work environments that i?m eager to gain expertise in. I am an open book when it comes to experience and have interests in working for the rehab department in a nursing home, working with children in an elementary school, and working in a hospital setting. Thank you Sertoma, for this scholarship? for the opportunity to focus on school more so that I can continue my education and work toward my goal as a Speech-Language Pathologist who will make a difference in someone?s life!?
