What do you attribute your success to?
- I chose Andrews University to pursue my doctorate degree in Physical Therapy because of their focus of Christian education/ As a Christian school, they encourage students to have strong moral principles and a close relationship with God. The focus of the University is to have a holistic approach to life that balances body, mind and spirit in such a way that students are fully prepared to serve the world when they finish their studies. Included in my studies were 3 classes called "World Religions", "Spirituality and Healthcare", and a leadership class where our textbook was "Lead like Jesus" where we learned about servant leadership. Andrews University Physical Therapy Department equipped me very well to become a clinician that cares for the whole person - mind, body, and soul. I attribute this to my success as a Physical Therapist.
