Anna Mae (Agnieszka) Parsons
I am a MECN student at the UCLA School of Nursing, in training to be a pediatric oncology nurse. I got my undergraduate degree in child development and have always been passionate about early intervention for women and children. I hope to spend my career helping children and families feel safe within the hospital setting, and making sure underrepresented populations are able to receive equal access to care. I am interested in public health nursing as well as beside nursing, and am looking forward to learning more about population health while in MCH. In my free time I enjoy hiking and doing yoga and spending as much time in the sunshine as possible.
