My undergraduate major was Speech/Communicative Disorders. I was always fascinated with speech disoders(stuttering), fluency disorders, voice problems, and language disorders. The field is one that has many opportunities and there are so many different work settings. The program at my school is one of the few in the country that allows undergraduates to conduct clinical practicum(therapy). During my first semester of clinic(my junior year), I decided that this was really not what I wanted to do. I stuck it out because I refused to be in undergrad more than four years.
This fall, I will be entering graduate school pursuing a masters in Health Services Administration. I did take some classes in Healthcare Administration during my senior year of undergrad. I want to be an advocate for African Americans and other minorities to help make health care more accessible to them.
