The reasonBack in 2012 I was diagnosed with two bulging disc in the lower back.A bulging disk extends outside the space it should normally occupyA bulging disc in the lower back could lead to severe pain.Then came that time when the doctor said back surgery Laminectomy.Laminectomy is surgery to remove the lamina. This is part of the bone that makes up a vertebra in the spine.Also known as decompression surgery, laminectomy enlarges your spinal canal to relieve pressure on the spinal cord or nerves.

The passionChanging careers was a hard decision to make, cooking is my passion.I took to it quickly and enjoyed it. It made me feel good about me and what I was doing.The most rewarding was the assisted living facility cooking for the elderly. I felt as though I was giving back to the community.It was hard to say good bye but it was time to move on.Applied for a line cook job at Sharis and received a raise 4 days after I started. On a Sunday too if you know anything about Sharis and Sundays they are very busy.

The student

Returning to school as an adult student at my age was my only concernWhen choosing what to major in I thought about management and healthcare separately. But then thought I’d make it real challenging and combine the two.I am returning to school in pursuit of a bachelors degree in Healthcare Management Services

Realizing I couldn’t keep doing the line cooking for much longer I choose to return to school.
