University of Pikeville - Kentucky College of Optometry

Class of 2020

I am a member of the inaugural class of 2020 in the Kentucky College of Optometry (KYCO).

I look forward to continuing my career as an educator in the field of optometry and plan to bring my passion for helping others with me everywhere I go.
