4 | EMILY TAYLOR KIRBY
Emily and her husband Robert, along
with their two fur babies Zoey and
Cooper, live in Summerville, SC while
Emily attends grad school for her
Master’s in Physician Assistant studies at
Charleston Southern University. Robert
is working downtown at MUSC as a
nurse in the Cardiovascular Intensive
Care Unit. They will reside there until
she graduates in December of 2020,
and from there will go wherever the
Lord takes them, because Robert is
aspiring to go back to school as well for
his Doctorate in Nursing as a Certified
Registered Nurse Anesthetist. Emily is
beyond grateful for her program because
Charleston Southern University is a
Christian university, and the faculty/
students are incredible guides to have
in her training. What drew her most
to the program was the fact that their
mission statement included the mission
statement of CHCA: “...integrating faith
in learning, leading and serving.” Every
day in class she is learning to "...be a
Health Care Provider who shows the
love of Christ to every patient I have the
privilege of taking care of." This season
has a lot of growth and learning involved,
but she is so thankful that her education
and growth at CHCA grounded and
prepared her to flourish as a future
Physician Assistant!

the fall her school was visited by several
CHCA teachers and administrators who
traveled for inspiration to bring back

to have both of her worlds collide
years down the road. When not in her
classroom, you can find Caroline on
the field at Lucas Oil Stadium as an
Indianapolis Colts Cheerleader. This is
Caroline’s second season on the team,
and she is finding it a great way to make
meaningful connections and friendships
post-grad, while also continuing her love
of dance. Within the Colts organization
Caroline has had the opportunity to
not only cheer on the sidelines, but also
participate in numerous community
appearances. While Cincinnati is her
alma mater, Indianapolis has quickly
become her “home away home.”
