"I feel I need to take the challenge that some educators run from. My plans after graduation are to become a physical education teacher in Chicago Public Schools. I am not expecting an easy job but I am expecting a job that will make the challenges all worth it when I see my students succeed. If I can change one person's life, the reason I am going into physical education will be complete."

"I plan to attend a three year Doctorate of Physical Therapy graduate program. My dream is to pursue physical therapy, particularly pediatric physical therapy. I would love to work in an outpatient clinic for therapy and rehab for children ages 0-18, as well as work in some home care roles and school setting roles. I want to be able to create new exercises, techniques, and equipment for pediatric physical therapists to use, and to have a great impact on the lives of the children I work with."
