I'm proud to be a Warrior and part of a community that understands the importance of having a wide variety of life experiences present at the table.

I believe that the Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) program will provide me with the tools to use evidence-based programs to close the gaps in health disparities in heart and kidney diseases in Detroit.

The thing I like most about Detroiters is our creativity. We add our own unique flavor to everything—from food and fashion to art and music. Detroit is home to some of the most innovative and talented individuals in the world.

As a single mother of two boys, I want to be able to show them that the path to higher education is attainable.

As a scientist and a Warrior, I am proud to be a part of a community that does cutting-edge health research to aid in improving the lives of others.

I wanted to be a graduate ambassador because it provides me with a platform to meet new people, build a sense of community, and engage in diverse interactions. 

I always knew I wanted to pursue education beyond a bachelor's degree. My twin sister also went to grad school, so I couldn't let her show me up.

I love the people, their resiliency, and their ability to make everyone feel like they are part of a family regardless of your race, ethnicity, religion, or sexual orientation—a characteristic that is uniquely Detroit.

The sense of community and opportunity to engage regularly with Detroit make me proudest to be a Warrior.

I chose Wayne State because of its strong research record. I knew that I was interested in researching racial violence from a communication perspective, and Wayne State could provide me with the tools to strengthen my research skills.

I LOVE the hustle that each Detroiter either has or grows to know. Detroit hustles harder—no ifs, ands, or buts about it!
