Sumner College Student of the Month | August 2024
Congratulations Hanna, for being the August 2024 Student of the Month at Sumner College! Hanna was inspired to pursue a career as a Practical Nursing after growing up in Ethiopia where she witnessed many people not receiving the care they needed. This experience inspired her to pursue a career in healthcare with a deep commitment to making an impact to the people around her. In her free time Hanna enjoys watching her daughter’s games and hiking in kid-friendly places.
Congratulations on your accomplishment!
