Story Of An Adult.

I am 35 years-old and have a family, the decision to return to school was a big one for me. I returned to school so I could finish the degree I started several years ago, to better myself at my present job, and to provide a better life for my family.
I have been to college several times. I originally received an Associates of Applied Science degree in Business Management. I worked in an accounting office at a local manufacturing company for a little over a year and realized this is not exactly what I wanted to do. I then went back to school and received an Associate of Arts degree as a Medical Assistant. I worked as a medical assistant for years and loved it. I thought I had found my calling.
It wasn’t until I found my previous job that I realized there is more to the healthcare field than just assisting the doctor. I had been with the doctor’s office for about six month, when one of the girls in the front went on vacation. The doctors asked me to work for her while she was gone because I knew the system and how to handle insurance. I gladly accepted because of the change of pace. I quickly discovered that I like doing insurance and billing.
There was some big changes going on in the office and the office manager and the insurance/billing specialist was let go. The doctors then asked me to keep doing that job, so I did. After about a month and a horrible experience with a new office manager, the doctors asked me to take over as office manager. I was so excited and nervous. That is the biggest reason I chose to go back to school right now. I am trying to obtain my bachelors degree in Healthcare Administration so I can improve myself at work.
