Being born and raised in a developing country has its own pros and cons. I belong to a middle class Muslim family form Karachi, Pakistan. Growing up, I realized that challenging our own society and culture, as a young aspiring woman, would be no less than a battle. I am lucky that my Father never considered me less than his son. He once said, said “ I will never stop you from dreaming, Instead, I will always stand beside you to make sure your dreams come true”. It was not a norm for girls to leave the country for education. They get married at the earliest convenience and give up their careers. They are expected to look after the house and have children. Not that I am against it, I was not ready to give up my career and my dreams. I was the first girl in my whole family to go to …show more content…
I believe it’s the respect for my seniors that has brought me so far in my career, a quality I inherited. I can easily adapt to different environments proved by my work in all fields of medicine. Working at the Civil Hospital of Karachi I learned how to function in an under resourced environment and then working in USA I learned how to function in a well-resourced environment. I want to bring new ideas to the field of medicine. Einstein has always fascinated me. I am not saying I want to be Einstein, but I can be an inventor. I plan to indulge myself in state of the art research opportunities and publish papers and keep the field of medicine cultivating. After completing my residency, I plan to continue my training as a fellow in a sub specialty, which I have yet to decide. I will be taking interest in every rotation in the residency to see what attracts me the most. In the future, I see my self as a part of a teaching hospital where I can grow my practice and keep myself connected to an academic institution. I know I have the qualities and the will to live a life of a successful woman in today’s
My future career aspiration is to work somewhere in the medical field, and I believe that the Academy could help me figure out exactly where in the field I want to be. I would like to work in the medical field because there are so many different opportunities in healthcare to make a difference in people’s lives. I want to have a career where every day is something new and exciting, meeting and making impacts on people’s lives.
All my life I have known that I wanted to be involved in the medical field. At first, I wanted to be a Physical Therapist. The only problem was, I wasn’t excited about my possible future career. Then, I got offered a job doing in home care. I then knew I wanted to widened
At the start of the semester, my oblivious state of nature associating with the Chinese culture reached an unacceptable level. Implementing a necessary change, I decided to educate myself on different cultures starting with China. I failed to ponder that such a rich, deep culture existed outside America. Encompassed by this country’s unique yet suffocating melting pot culture, my outlook believed ideas such as uniformity between American Chinese food and Authentic Chinese food. After this course, my bigot perspective widened as I witnessed diversity in the world. Before this class, when I thought of Chinese food, my connotation jumped to thoughts associated with chop suey, but as I progressed my education, my mindset gradually pondered foods like steamed buns or “New Year Cakes” with authentic Chinese food.
The first step in deciding what practice setting and clinical model that I would prefer. I did research and decided that a primary care provider would fit my career goals. A primary care nurse practitioner is defined as a nurse that works in a practice setting that has "the provision of integrated, accessible health care services by clinicians who are accountable for addressing a large majority of personal health needs, developing sustained partnerships with patients, and practicing in the context of family and community" (Anderson & O’Grady, 2009, p. 383). I believe my past and future education, along with my years of clinical experience, has prepared me to take a novice role as a NP in this care setting. When I graduate and I am working in a clinical practice setting, I look forward to continuing my education through my practice through formal and informal training.
In short, the practice of medicine requires we become always better caregivers—and always better people, in turn. This is what my experiences in shadowing and volunteering have taught me—and it is a truth I take to heart. ================
I had known for years that I wanted to work in the health care field, but I always believed it would be as a doctor. I watched for the first few years of my brother’s life as he struggled with different health challenges such as being born premature, having croup and breathing difficulty, and speech impairment. Watching my brother struggle and then being able to overcome these difficulties, as well as seeing other children around him who were not as fortunate, really pushed me even at a young age to make a difference. My family, both immediate and extended, were very supportive, and I felt a real positive push towards working hard to achieve that goal of working in health care. In high school, I was fortunate enough to do a cooperative placement at the Peterborough Regional Health Center’s Intensive Care Unit. Through observing rounds and being in the medical setting, I truly knew this is where I wanted to
...forming bench research at Barry University and Weill Cornell Medical College in the Traveler’s Research Fellowship, I have been exposed to the side of medicine where scientists work every day to find cures for diseases and save lives. Experiencing different aspects of medicine has made me a more competent individual to thrive in this field and has deepened my interest and passion to pursue medicine as a career.I believe that those who fight with so little against so much truly need others to help them in their struggle. Being a physician is not only becoming a successful professional. I will work hard to bring about necessary changes to end social disparities, so that more groups in society receive the best healthcare. By making a difference in their lives, I will receive rewarding experiences that are worth all the hard work and sacrifice my chosen career requires.
Daydreaming is a part of almost all of people’s lives at some point. Daydreaming can take place anywhere, from the home, school, work, or even when you just happen to be taking a walk. Daydreaming is something that is an immense part of my life. I function much better when I daydream momentarily. Much of the older generation may say that daydreaming isn’t productive, or that it doesn’t get you anywhere, but I believe that daydreaming allows me to be more creative and successful.
I am not, by any means, a Shakespeare, Stephen King, or John Grisham. It would take enormous amounts of time, practice, and effort to be considered a long shot at a Pulitzer Prize. Yet, I intend to progress my writing by setting more achievable goals, building on new ideas, and developing new skills. Also, I will use the advice of instructors and peers, and draw from previous writing experiences to mold this and future writing experiences.
Additionally, I demonstrate commitment, leadership skills, and passion for working with my patients and multi-disciplinary team members. I have been fine-tuning my practice and immersing myself in learning through the nurse residency program at New York University Langone Health (NYLH). In addition to completing the residency program and continuing education units at NYLH, I mentor new RN’s, participate in unit practice informational meetings, and have presented and launched research findings on my clinical unit.
College is known to be the first step into adulthood. As a person enters a world of responsibilities, they are expected to make a series of decisions that draw the path to the next phase of their life such as, which university to apply to, which field of studies they choose, and so on. Personally, the American University of Beirut was my first choice, and some personal experiences highly support my decision; AUB offers many different experiences that create the differences between school and college, mold us to become adults, and introduce us to an immersive community.
After doing the developmental plan of my personal goal, I felt that this was an eye opener for me. I always have a plan just like a bucket list, but went I started writing out each topic of my personal goals and thought everything out it gave me a clear vision of what my goal really meant to me. It's going to take a lot of hard work and dedication to finish my goal.

Most people imagine their dream job is to become a famous actor or a job they have seen done many times. Though because of the progression of technology I would be more suited in a field involving computers. My dream job is to become a successful software engineer because I have always been into computer systems, but can I fit this job, is the career life something I can manage and what opportunities should I go after when becoming a software engineer. Each time I notice how a program is used I wonder how can I make it become faster or more efficient. When you are using your cell phone or iPad there is usually an update at every month. This is because apple is improving the speed of your applications. A software engineer is sometimes overlooked, but without software engineer’s applications would either crash or would not improve. Although most people may feel looking at a computer all day and trying to fix it is uninteresting, I find it challenging
Life contains an unlimited amount of life lessons; my main life lesson has inspired me to never give up on myself or my goals. Through my life experiences I have learned that there is no such thing as failure. I am certain with myself that I can find success through hard work and dedication. My career aspiration is to help others as a healthcare professional. More specifically, I have a dream of pursuing a career in physical therapy. Nothing gives me more self-satisfaction than to see that I am able to help people self-improve. Therefore, I have committed to studying and preparing myself for graduate school. I am currently an Undergraduate student at the University of Central Florida, destined to graduate in the Fall of 2017. There are multiple Undergraduate degree paths I can take to prepare myself for grad-school; however, I chose a path that can help me develop skills to provide the best possible service for my future patients. I am pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree in Health Sciences
Everybody; old and young have active an imagination, but we all express it differently than others. For me I express my imagination with my artwork. For example; when I was younger I watched a lot of cartoons just like any other kid. My favorite cartoon at the time was He-Man. I loved the show so much that I frequently dreamt and imagined of being strong like him, but I knew it could not be possible so instead of dreaming, I drew up an entire comic book of myself being a super strong super hero just like He-Man all thanks to my vivid imagination and artistic ability. I’m sure I’m not the only one who has done something similar.
