Commitment is the inner drive that enables you to move forward and take action towards a goal. My self-determination towards my education allows me to get the assignment done and on time. It also allows me to push myself beyond what is expected through personal responsibility. Holding this type of work style will make a difference in my life in many ways. I will use my education to make a difference by volunteering in places that is needed.

Career Goal:  Dentist

 

 

 

Not only do I want to be the first in my family to be a dentist, but I also want to be the first to attend and graduate from college. As an African American young woman from a historically dis-empowered and low socio-economic neighborhood, people doubt that I will succeed in becoming a dentist. However, I know their negativity will not hinder me.
