Hope B.

SJB gave me the foundation and guidance I needed to follow my dream of making a difference in the medical Field. In the fall, I will begin my studies at the Connell School of Nursing at Boston College with the hope of building a career dedicated to Obstetrics and Gynecology.

My years at St. Jean Baptiste were filled with opportunities that helped me grow, especially through healthcare internships. At Weill Cornell, I received mentorship in human anatomy and spent time in gross anatomy labs- experiences that deepened my passion for medicine. The Lenox Hill Summer Physician Assistant Program gave me an incredible chance to observe surgeries and procedures in Neurology, Obstetrics, Cardiology and General Surgery. 

For my senior-year Christian Service, I witnessed patient care firsthand and shared my journey through a presentation on my nursing experiences with the Lenox Hill Nurse Youth program. I'm deeply honored to have received a full scholarship to attend Boston College through the QuestBridge National College Match, an am excited to begin my college studies!
