Always put your best foot forward and make the most out of every clinical opportunity you are given. It is so important that you take advantage of the time you are given to grow and learn under direct supervision of professionals in our field. Be sure to push yourself out of your comfort zone, ask a lot of questions, and establish good relationships with the supervisors you work with. You never know what kind of opportunities may arise from the people you connect with along the way!
