Q. What aspects of your MCB degree program best helped you prepare for your career?

A. The rigor! Nursing school is no joke, especially accelerated programs, however, I felt that the level of performance required as part of the MCB BA program helped prepare me more than I could realize.

Q. How did you decide on your current career path?

A. I started working in healthcare after graduation with the goal of pursuing an MD degree, but after spending more time in the hospital, I found the nursing profession to be more fulfilling and interesting, as well as conducive to my lifestyle as compared to the medical doctor route. It took a long time to come to that decision, as I had been so focused on getting into medical school for so long, but ultimately it was the right decision for me, and I could not be happier!

Q. Share your favorite Berkeley lunch place, coffee shop, landmark study spot...etc. 

A. I loved Royal Grounds Cafe for studying! Fav date night spot was Berkeley Thai House, which is sadly no longer around, but the real ones know it :)
