Becoming A Reproductive Endocrinologist

Decent Essays
When I was ten, I started volunteering at a church nursery watching 0-3 year olds while their parents were in church. I enjoyed every minute of it and the children seemed to like having me around. Awhile after I started working there a little girl named Jocelyn, came in. She took a particular liking to me and would only let me hold her and didn’t want to let me set her down. She had me wrapped around my little finger. That's when I knew that I wanted to work with children. I’ve gone on to realize that what I really want to do is become a reproductive endocrinologist, also known as, fertility specialist. I may never have figured that out so soon, or possibly at all if it hadn’t been for the little girl with the big eyes.

    I grew up in an upper-middle class, white, Catholic family, in the middle of suburban Cary, North Carolina. Culture was a term introduced in school with pictures of exotic places and bright wardrobes; history lived inside textbooks with stories of war and migration.

The little history and culture introduced by my family showed me who I do not want to become. While the teachings of Christianity shaped me into a compassionate, open-hearted person, I struggle to accept the dogma that followed it.…

    As we’ve studied the different types of educational philosophies in class, I’ve been able to see which category my beliefs fall into and where that puts me in the teaching world.
