The University of Pennsylvania provided Enoch with a rigorous academic environment where students created startups and held internships at Fortune 100 companies. Some of Enoch’s peers went to medical school, while others went into nursing. Enoch enjoyed the competitive environment that encouraged growth. At the University of Pennsylvania, Enoch was encouraged to apply for and got accepted to UPenn’s Nurse Anesthetist program.

At Pacifica, the small class size allowed for closer relationships to be built and more interaction with the teachers. There was a good balance of social life, academics, sports, and extracurricular activities. If you wanted to pursue something specific, either academic or extracurricular, the teachers and staff were extremely supportive and great resources. 

Academically, Pacifica encouraged the work ethic to succeed and provided a good social environment to meet people from different backgrounds. UPenn and most colleges tend to be quite diverse, and getting along with people from various backgrounds proved invaluable for networking and friendships. Enoch is currently working as a nurse, in real estate investing, and fitness coaching and is living life.
