Area L AHEC’s health careers program has been very valuable to my family. I am a mother of three and am always looking for inventive ideas to get my children inspired about their future. When my children became involved with AHEC, I quickly determined that I had found a gold mine.

I just wanted to say a big thank you for letting me attend MAHEC summer camp those two years in a row. That is when I realized I wanted to become a physical therapist, and now I'm pursuing that dream. That summer camp changed my life.

I can confidently say that the opportunities and experiences that have led me to where I am today can be attributed to Area L AHEC . . . I am excited to continue my journey in becoming a pharmacist and a leader in health care.

The research opportunities that I experienced during my Northwest AHEC and other summer medical programs improved my resume and increased my chances of getting into the medical school of my choice. At East Carolina University, I quickly learned that the AHEC system was still a part of my life and aspirations. I took advantage of housing that was provided for medical students during rotations held at other health care facilities across the state . . . Thank you, Northwest AHEC, for being the catalyst to my dreams.

The Charlotte AHEC HEROES program opened up a door for me. It exposed me to a variety of career paths that at one time I felt were out of my reach. I have met so many wonderful people and learned so much by being connected to this program.
