Through working with the Career Readiness Center team during the fall of 2021 in honing her residency interviewing skills and other application strategies, Monica matched into a brand new Internal Medicine residency program in Georgia with what she describes as very supportive program leadership.
Cecilia Rivera, College of Health Professions
“It’s been amazing learning about wellness, collaborating with clients, finding strengths, and how to be a transformational leader. I highly value the connections with my classmates, we support each other daily despite being separated by distance. I was motivated to pursue this degree because of my passion for serving others and seeing students’ drive and compassion for their patients when I was an HSC employee. Curiosity, determination, and a desire to grow are the factors that contributed to my path to graduate school, and they continue to help me succeed in the program. Additionally, a couple of professors have supported me in times of stress by helping me recognize my strengths and boosting my confidence in my abilities to be a leader.”
Cecilia, a student in the Lifestyle Health Sciences program, anticipates graduating in 2022.
