Philadelphia Health Corps Role: Community Health Outreach Worker at LaSalle Neighborhood Nursing Center

Why did you join AmeriCorps/National Health Corps?  I joined AmeriCorps to better understand public health issues affecting urban communities.

Where do you want to be in five years? What do you want to be doing?  In 5 years I hope to be graduated from medical school and working as a physician with a public health focus.

What is your favorite part of Philadelphia? The neighborhoods! And the fact that the city is so walkable, it's great to be able to explore new areas of the city so easily.
