I graduated from ASA’s Medical Assisting program. I was drawn to this particular field because I am a compassionate person who loves to help others. My dreams of success and desire for better employment were major motivating factors in accomplishing my goal.

I chose ASA because of its Medical Assisting program which included courses in Physical Therapy Aide. They have great support systems in place so that you are well prepared for the challenges you face, not only as a student, but also in your personal life. Advisors were always available to assist me in any way they could.

To a large degree, my career advisor Kimberly Ellington is responsible for where I am today. Many times Kimberly went out of her way to assist me. Her guidance enabled me to become better prepared in handling those obstacles I faced in obtaining my degree.

Ultimately, I would like to go back to school and to obtain my Master’s in Physical Therapy. The only words of wisdom I have for the future graduates of ASA are to have faith and to get a counselor like Kimberly, who is always there for you. ASA can and will make a difference in your life. You just have to listen, learn, and make sure you are putting your best effort into accomplishing your goals.
