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.
