Initially I planned to pursue a degree in nursing, but after completing my CNA certification I realized that hands-on medical care was not the right fit for me. After doing a bit of research, I discovered M state offered a Medical Administrative Assistant program and thought that would suit me perfectly.

M State gave me the initial education and understanding I needed to break into the medical administrative field. I especially enjoyed the program structure and feel that it also helped to have such knowledgeable staff! M State laid the foundation for me to pursue my bachelor’s degree in Health Services Administration.  

I’m currently working as a financial counselor in a reproductive clinic, handling all aspects associated with the business office and meeting with patients to consult about their future financial responsibilities based on their treatment plans. I’ve also been employed in dermatology and ophthalmology clinics.
