Angela Clayborne is the inaugural FIRST scholar to pursue Psychiatry. She is from Raleigh and has experience working with uninsured and underinsured populations. Her desire to help those in need is her motivation to do an accelerated track to gain clinical experience sooner than she normally would. “By becoming a psychiatrist, I want to become a trusted professional that people feel comfortable coming to for help.”
“My experience in the FIRST program has been great and rewarding! Everyone has been so kind and supportive, and I’ve truly valued the opportunity to have early exposure to the clinical setting. I look forward to being able to serve the community that has given me so much.”
