Vivian’s journey to healthcare began after witnessing the huge gaps in care in her community in the developing world. This contributed to her commitment to ensuring that patients receive the best possible care and advocating for vulnerable individuals in her work as a caregiver with Home Care Aide certification.
Vivian has demonstrated tremendous commitment, working as a caregiver, studying for her license, and raising a child as a single parent. She has taken on leadership roles in the classroom, serving as a mentor and team leader for her fellow students. We are proud to help her on her journey with a 2026 WSNF scholarship.
