Since last year, I have found myself in the position of a Providence St. Joseph volunteer; I complete my hours in the telemetry cardiac department. This role has allowed me to complete tasks that make me feel as if I am carrying an importance in people's lives, and through each shift, I learn something new about patients and hospital life. My goal is to continue volunteering at St. Joseph until I reach the one-hundred-hour mark. Having the ability to be involved in the life of nurses, doctors, and in general, any hospital worker is a privilege, and I have been able to analyze and detect what kind of positions I see myself in, in the future. 

During freshman year, I began interning at Merdinian School, which is an Armenian private school; I was able to help in the front office with paperwork organization, assist teachers with simple tasks, and, most importantly, assist students. This role made me develop an interest in working with kids and made me reanalyze what specific career I want to do in the medical field that would allow me to interact with children every day. This was a detrimental and memorable experience for me as a student, and throughout my time in high school, this time period was one that I will always look upon and solely reminisce on the experience I was able to gain, which has assisted me in various aspects of life to this day. My experience shown through the pictures I took myself can be seen on the "NAF Internship" page, but this is an image of the campus that clearly displays where I spent many weeks at and gained vital memories.
