Hi.. I’m Rachel I love to dance! I have actually studied classical ballet for 13 years, but I’ve also had experience with modern ballet, jazz, tap, liturgical, and ballroom dancing. It’s pretty much the only “sport” I can do since I was not blessed with the gift of hand-eye coordination. .
I’m a Survivor! When I was 4 years old, I was diagnosed with T-Cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma. I went through 2 years of chemotherapy, but now I’ve been cancer-free for 12 years. It was tough, but I feel that it has made me a stronger person. Last summer I wrote a children’s book about my experience (see fig. 1). Fig. 1
So… Because of my experience with cancer, I want to be a pediatric oncologist nurse and possibly go to medical school later after that to become a pediatric oncologist (I haven’t really decided yet). And that’s pretty much me! reo7299@uncw.edu
