Many individuals are completely unaware of the variety of job opportunities that a pharmacist has. Unfortunately, pharmacists are sometimes seen as “peel and stick” workers, and do not get enough credit for the tasks that they complete behind the scenes.

I want to be a Medical Administrative Assistant at Vanderbilt hospital to honor my late sister and my parents. When I was 18 years old my sister Debbie died from cancer. The majority of my childhood and teenage years were spent in hospitals and the majority of my parent's money went to paying the doctors. During this period of my life I thought medicine was doing more harm than good. Because I was older at the time of Debbie's death my perception about medicine changed and I became motivated to find out why medicine costs so much and why some procedures cost more than others? So I studied hard, became Valedictorian of my class, earning a full scholarship to Vanderbilt University and now I'm ready to become a member of the Vanderbilt hospital community. It would be a great honor to secure one of the three Medical Administrative Assistants positions.…

Sacrifices were made, which I came to realize is what a physician's job entails. I had never faced more of a…
