“I grew up in Vietnam and moved to the United States without knowing English. My thirst for knowledge and desire to attain the “American Dream” have motivated me tremendously. After witnessing the level of healthcare and poverty in my home country, I wanted to be someone who can positively impact the lives of many individuals. Now this goal is more than just a dream, it is becoming a reality. Once I finish my undergraduate studies in Physical Activity and Health, I can apply to physical therapy school. Eastern Oregon University (EOU) staff and teachers are dedicated to helping students reach their goals. As a student at EOU, I am thankful to be part of a school that encourages and provides continuous support toward student success. EOU is more than just a university, it is a family.”
