\u201cMy passion and their mission is absolutely congruent, and it is an honor to be selected for the scholarship,\u201d Locke said. \u201cIt will help me be the best PA I can be.\u201d<\/p>\n

Locke said he wanted to become a PA to empower people to take responsibility for their health. Before PA school, Locke worked in a rural community as a paramedic. \u201cI took great pride in managing emergencies, but I knew that I wanted to be able to provide more definitive treatment and allow people to focus on enjoying their lives,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Locke will graduate with the second-ever cohort of PAs from the UNC School of Medicine Department of Allied Health Sciences in December 2018. \u201cThere is so much to look forward to,\u201d Locke said. \u201cI am most excited to be able to refer to my preceptors, faculty, and instructors as colleagues.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
