David Lombardi shares his journey from High Point University nursing student to registered nurse at Moses Cone's emergency department in Greensboro. He describes how an initial premed path shifted to nursing when HPU launched its program, and how small class sizes, dedicated mentorship from Dr. Stephanie Smoot, and active involvement in clubs and fraternities shaped his college experience. David emphasizes how HPU's 'Choose to be Extraordinary' mantra taught him to take ownership of his growth and embrace opportunities available to him.
