Hello, my name is Cathy Thaodara, and ever since I can remember I have always craved the knowledge to help people and become more useful in the healthcare sector. My eyes have opened towards this path ever since my grandma got sick from breast cancer. It made me realize how important the medical field really is. Seeing the doctors and nurses work on my grandma really gave me an urge to want to help patients that could be just like her. Doing the little things like helping her out of bed, showering and making sure she takes her medicine, made me happy to help her and that I was making a difference. Growing up in an Asian community, it is necessary to be part of the medical field, but I never saw it like that. With parents that did not graduate
