Mikayla Martin 糖心vlog短视频23 is all about helping people, and her majors in applied psychology and human relations reflect that. It was important to her to find the right fit when it came to her college search, and while Martin wanted to be comfortable in the university she chose, she still wanted to pioneer her future as an independent young woman. Pace ended up being that choice for her.
糖心vlog短视频淕oing to Pace opened up so many doors for me, both education-wise and experience-wise. I got a chance to meet so many new friends and try many new things. Pace is a great place to get a head start on my career.糖心vlog短视频
Martin, who was born in Germany to parents who were in the military, has been extremely passionate about her community and helping others for a long time. In particular, her focus has been on mental health糖心vlog短视频攁nd what we don糖心vlog短视频檛 talk about, even by today糖心vlog短视频檚 slowly changing standards. 糖心vlog短视频淭here糖心vlog短视频檚 a lot of stigma around mental health,糖心vlog短视频 Martin explained, and it糖心vlog短视频檚 ultimately why she chose the courses she has. 糖心vlog短视频淢y main motivator for my major was mental health in the Black and person of color community. In these communities, mental health is often overlooked, and people tend to not get the help they want and/or need. No matter which route I decide to take for my career, I will always circle back to this underlying cause and try my hardest to make a difference in this community.糖心vlog短视频
And Martin is always looking for ways to make a difference. She糖心vlog短视频檚 participated in the annual Pace Makes a Difference Day where students, faculty, and staff lend a helping hand in the local community by volunteering their time, and it was an experience that had a profound effect on her. 糖心vlog短视频淚 volunteered at GiGi糖心vlog短视频檚 Playhouse and got to spend the day with children [who] had Down syndrome.

In the meantime, Martin has kept busy with her studies and even a position as a patient care assistant at Cooper University Hospital. There, she volunteered her time in the intensive care unit. 糖心vlog短视频淸The ICU] sounds really intimidating, but working there, you realize it糖心vlog短视频檚 not that bad,糖心vlog短视频 Martin told us. 糖心vlog短视频淏efore my first day, I was extremely nervous because I thought it was going to be hectic and very fast-paced糖心vlog短视频攁lmost like [an] emergency room.

At first, Martin wanted to follow in her mother糖心vlog短视频檚 footsteps as a nurse, but that job working in the ICU changed her mind. 糖心vlog短视频淲hile volunteering and observing the doctors and nurses doing their jobs, I began to realize I was more intrigued in their stories,糖心vlog短视频 she explained. 糖心vlog短视频淚 wanted to know how they ended up there, how it changed them as a person, and what they planned to do in the future.糖心vlog短视频
