"UHart is a very small college, which allowed me to learn more along the way through additional one-on-one time with professors and my peers," she says.
As she looks toward the future, Emily is excited to continue gaining experience, growing professionally, and pursuing her entrepreneurial ambitions within the health care industry.
With a strong educational foundation and a clear vision for what's next, Emily is taking the first steps toward making a meaningful impact in the health care field.
