My experience as a Ph.D. student in Nursing at Rackham represents an exciting chapter in my life. I feel that I am very fortunate to be a part of U-M and have learned so much since I began my graduate studies. Although there were challenges and difficulties as an international student, Rackham has always made this transition easy for me by providing helpful resources and support. I’m really thankful for the Barbour Scholarship award. It is a great honor for me to receive this prestigious award which provides the essential support I need to complete my program and conduct my research. My research training in patient safety is preparing me to make a difference in healthcare in Thailand and other developing countries. I am proud to say “I AM RACKHAM.”
