To say nursing school did not prepare me to work 40 different jobs is an understatement. I never thought I would be on my own, holding a patient’s hand so they weren’t alone when they passed.

“Why optometry?” It is the question I always get when people find out I am an optometry student. To be honest, I find it difficult to begin the explanation for my passion for the field, so I ask: “If you could only choose 1 of the 5 basic senses the human body has (smell, touch, taste, vision, hearing), which one would it be?”

Like many of you reading this, I have struggled with mental health challenges in my life.
