Hello!
My name is Miriam Girdley and I am a Sophomore at IUPUI. My major is nursing and I am an honors student. I am pursing a career as a nurse and (eventually) a nurse practitioner.
"I am" Statement
I am a motivated student by the thought of one day helping people have better health and comfort through unpleasant times. I am inspired to make a difference in people’s lives by my grandfather who did that on a daily basis. I am a Christian who actively pursues my faith and lives by the word of God. I am a volunteer become family member at Brighter Path (a facility that provides equine-assisted therapy to those who are mentally, physically, and emotionally challenged). I am resilient to things life may throw my way by standing strong in who I am and what I know I am capable of achieving.
Reflection
This reflection of myself has allowed me to better consider my identity. It has made me feel confident in who I am, and what I can contribute to my future career. It has made me acknowledge my strengths and has shown me where my gaps are. Also, it has allowed me to consider how my current values and beliefs fit into my goals and future.
