Brooks 10 Student
My favorite quote is “we cannot become
what we want, by remaining what we are”
This quote reminds me that change is good
and that changing also means we are growing.
Who are Brooks 10 Students?
5
Brooks 10 students are students who serve as
liaisons for their affiliated programs. Ten
individuals are chosen among students from
Brooks College of Health to represent the
college . and their programs.
What do you like about being part of Brooks 10?
It's a great opportunity to be a part of Brooks
10 because not only do you get to work with a
great team of students, but we also have
opportunities to enhance our public speaking
skills, network with others on-and-off campus,
work with local organizations in the community
and recruit future BCH Ospreys.
What do you like about being part of Brooks 10?
Being a part of Brooks10 is a great honor. I
was noticed by my professors and nominated
to be a representative of my college. This
position allows me to talk about my passion for
nutrition and my program.We also receive an
honors cord to wear at commencement and to
me, that is a great accomplishment.
What inspired you to pursue your degree?
I have always been interested in the
relationship between nutrition and our bodies.
My journey started with getting my bachelor’s
in public health with a minor in health
education. I was pursuing this degree
eventually in hopes of being accepted into the
Nursing program at UNF, however, after taking
a few nutrition-related classes, I realized that
my interest in nutrition grew. After graduating
with a Bachelor of Public Health degree, I
continued my education and started the
Nutrition and Dietetics DPD program at UNF.
What activities or hobbies do you enjoy
doing outside of school?
I have a strong interest in books and spend a
lot of my free time reading. When I'm not
reading, though, you can typically find me with
my son at the zoo or the pool.
