MYA WALCZAK ’26

Why did you choose health care at UW-Stevens Point: I chose to attend UWSP because I knew I wanted to pursue dietetics. I am also very passionate about archery, and UWSP has an Archery Club that I could be a part of. After I applied, I received a personal email from an Admissions counselor saying that he read over my application and was happy to hear that I was accepted. I really appreciated that he took time out of his day to read my application and made me feel wanted at UWSP. Career Aspirations: After graduating with my bachelor’s degree in dietetics, I would like to earn a master’s degree in clinical nutrition and then work in either a hospital or nursing home. In the future, my dream would be to work for a professional sports team such as the Milwaukee Bucks or the Green Bay Packers. Special Skills/Talents: I am a certified archery instructor and have taught many different groups lessons to middle and high schoolers. In high school, my team went to the state competition every year and in 2021 we made it to nationals.
