Why did you choose UNT Health College of Public Health?
I am a student in UNT Health’s Master of Physician Assistant Studies program and I am interested in community health and preventative care. When I learned about the dual MPH program at UNT Health, I knew it would be the perfect way to increase my knowledge in the areas I am passionate about, making me a better future healthcare provider.

How do you plan on applying the knowledge you gain to your future career?
I hope to take the knowledge I gain from the dual MPAS/MPH program and work as a PA in an underserved community, I would like to be involved in developing community health education and preventative care programs for underserved populations.
