As a college student, my goal is to earn an undergraduate degree in biology pre-health within three years. I’ve been committed to this objective since early high school, and I’m excited to push myself to achieve it! After my time at Southern Arkansas University, I aspire to become a dentist and eventually an orthodontist. Since I can remember, my dream has been to work in the dental field. In kindergarten, when classmates were apprehensive about having their teeth pulled, but wanted a visit from the tooth fairy, they would come to me for reassurance. I would explain how it wasn’t painful, and they often asked me to pull their teeth because I seemed “so experienced”. Looking back, it’s amusing, but those moments ignited my initial interest in dentistry.
Another goal I aim to achieve is becoming bilingual or even trilingual. I want to learn Spanish and other languages to better connect with people from diverse cultures. Traveling the world is a priority for me, and being able to communicate with locals is a crucial part of the experience. I wish to visit Greece and Rome for pleasure, while also exploring developing countries for service opportunities.
A significant reason I want to become a dentist is to serve others. After obtaining my credentials, I plan to travel to countries such as Honduras or Haiti to use my skills to assist those in need. Dental issues are prevalent in these areas. By being fluent in their languages and equipped with the necessary skills, I believe I can make a meaningful difference in their lives. Positively impacting others while making a difference is the top item on my bucket list.
