“After I started volunteering, I realized that helping people is what I really enjoy, especially in the department that I am in and what I am aspiring to be.
“I plan to attend graduate school at either Texas State University or The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio to obtain my doctorate degree in physical therapy. I volunteer in the Rehabilitation Department, and working in this department has solidified my dreams of becoming a physical therapist.
“Volunteering has definitely made me cherish the reward of helping people without the incentive of getting paid, and I believe that that is the actual value of working in the medical field.”
