National HOSA Representative Bethany Mackey

A life can change in an instant. Bethany’s changed when she witnessed poverty in Brazil. She was on her first international mission trip in Columba, Brazil, when she realized the lack of adequate health care in many countries. It was there she found that her passion was helping those who weren’t able to provide for themselves. Bethany has become an advocate for public health awareness and plans on pursuing a degree in Public Health with a concentration in Community Health at East Tennessee State University. Bethany has been involved in HOSA for 10 years. Her journey began when her mother became a health science educator in 2003. Bethany has been a part of the chapter’s activities ever since. In high school she ran for chapter office and during her senior year she served North Carolina HOSA as the District 8 Representative and the North Carolina Vice President. Bethany will continue

her involvement in HOSA at ETSU this coming year. “When life hands you lemons don’t just make lemonade, make lemonade and serve it to the world.” -Unknown

SC HOSA State Officers & State Advisors

Meet your 2013-2014 SC HOSA Officers

AAKASH SHINGALA President

Serving as State President this

past year has been one of the

greatest experiences of my life. To say I’ve enjoyed it would not

do it justice. I have learned so

much in my time and grown as a

leader in so many ways. I know

that the skulls that I have gained

will help in my career as a health professional. What makes

being a state officer most

memorable, though, would be

all of the great people I have

met. From my awesome officer team to the other state officers

I’ve met from around the nation

and all of the SC HOSA

members I have had the honor

of serving. I have realized that

the future really does start now with HOSA members from

around the nation. Thank you to

SC HOSA for the amazing

opportunity!

Current Plans: Attend Duke or Clemson / Major: Biochemistry

Career Goal: Surgeon

PAULINA TUCKER Vice-President

As I reminisce upon my year as

your SC HOSA Vice President, I

can say that this remarkably great organization has helped me and

has given me many opportunities

that no other organization has

offered. This past year, we as an

organization, have met many

goals together. I enjoyed my term in office and the fun times we had

at Nationals, as well as State. My

experience has been great; I

would like to thank each member

individually for allowing me to represent them. I am looking

forward to seeing HOSA reach

the top, as the nation’s greatest

student led organization. SC

HOSA, let’s keep up the great

work and climb to the top together.

Current Plans: Lander University / Major: Biology Career Goal: Oncologist

MAKAYLYN HIGGINS Post-Secondary Vice-President

As the end of my two years commitment with HOSA comes to a close, I am very proud to say this organization has changed me for the better. These years, I will never forget. I have enjoyed my officer team and amazing advisors. I thank you, SC HOSA, for allowing me this opportunity. I know that the skills and leadership training that I have learned will always help me in everything I do. HOSA has given me so many skills, that I could not have learned in the classroom, and my hope is that you will also have the same opportunities I have had through this amazing organization. Thank you again, South Carolina HOSA, for allowing me to serve you.

Future Plans: Attend Newberry College / Major: Nursing, Religion

Career Goal: Nurse Practitioner Missionary

REBEKAH TREASTER Secretary

As I look back on my year as SC HOSA Secretary, I am honored to say that I have been a member of an amazing organization. Being a part of such a close-knit team has opened up many doors to my future, not only in state but across the nation. Many of the opportunity made accessible to me through HOSA have shaped me into the individual that I am today. Through HOSA, I have made lasting friendships through connections for my future career. I would like to thank South Carolina HOSA for giving me the pleasure to represent our state and serve all of our members.

Current Plans: Major in Biology, Minor in Psychology

Career Goal: Pathologist

ASHLEA AYERS Historian

As I reflect on my past year as a South Carolina Sate Officer, I realize how thankful I am for the opportunities that this organization has given me. I can proudly say that I would not be who I am today without the help of my advisors, fellow members, and fellow state officers. HOSA has given me the chance to make life-long friends, of whom I could not be more thankful. My year as a state officer has allowed me to grow a better Future Health Care Professional, a better citizen of my state and nation, a better member of HOSA as well as a best friend. Thank you South Carolina HOSA for giving me the chance to represent you, and thank you for molding me into the person I am today.

EDGAR CASTRO Reporter

As I reflect upon the past year of being a state officer, I couldn’t be more blessed for the opportunity to have served South Carolina HOSA. I am very proud of this wonderful organization, which has helped me experience it all in the health field. I will always cherish the opportunity SC HOSA has given me and my officer team. I can proudly say that without the help of my family, advisors, and fellow members I wouldn’t be the person I am today. I am pleased to have served you all as your State Reporter! Once again, thank you SC HOSA for this wonderful opportunity, and I wish you the very best in your future health profession.

MAGEN FULGHUM Parliamentarian

As I look back on my year as your SC HOSA Parliamentarian, I can truly say that it has been an amazing experience. I have met so many incredibly people, and made lifelong friends. HOSA has changed my life in many ways and has taught me so many life lessons. A year ago I would have never seen myself making a speech in front a thousand of people and being such an inspiration to others. I could never see myself sitting HOSA nationals in Nashville, Tennessee, listening to a speech given by Ben Carson. I could never imagine having this wonderful opportunity to make such a difference in HOSA. This organization has helped me develop team and my wonderful HOSA advisors who have made this year possible. I will continue on from here, taking in everything from this experience and there will always be a place in my heart for HOSA.
