I decided to become a paramedic because I wanted to save lives. The School at the Mexican Red Cross is one of the most renowned academic institutions in the State. Their curriculum is full of prestige, which enables the students to start serving their community at an early stage of their college years. Being able to serve the community and save lives requires constant learning, a sharp mindset and being assertive. Realizing at the end of your shift that, with your help, a life was saved is an amazing feeling. My goal in life is to always learn new things and to constantly serve my community with passion and dedication.
Being a mother is my everyday motivation to continue advancing my career. Knowing that I am going to be able to help someone else’s son or daughter keeps me motivated. Thanks to the scholarship I received I was able to fulfill my dream of becoming a healthcare professional and serve my community.
