Favorite Study Method: My favorite Study method is looking at the lecture slides and then using active recall to write down what I remember on my iPAD! I also enjoy, listening to relaxing music while studying as it helps not to cry.

Hometown: Mission Viejo

Career Aspirations: Pediatric Nurse

Favorite Study Method: I find it very helpful to talk through the lectures out loud when I am reviewing them. Hearing myself say facts repitiously allows me a better change at remembering the information and walking concepts through my head gives me a better chance at fully understanding everything. I usually do this process while fighting through my tears!

Hobbies Outside of School: Working out!
