The Beginning...

Hello!

I started this blog as a way to express information about how to improve your heart's health through positive thinking, healthy eating habits, and a good exercise program.


My interest in the field of cardiology started my senior year of high school when I began exploring different areas of medicine that I could potentially practice.  The most influential program I attended was the Bristol-Myers Squibb Summer Science Program.
 

Through their program, I was able to visit a local hospital and see it in a way that I had never thought of before.
 

Suddenly, I was able to see everything that went into the hospital, but nothing was more important to me than the patients.
 

I settled on pursuing a career in cardiology because of the high prevalence of heart disease in America.  I believe that through a good health program, anybody can improve the health of their heart, and thus their quality of life.
