Primary Objective: To care for people, it's all she's ever wanted, was to help ease someone's suffering or pain, even if it was only in the tiniest bit.
Secondary Objectives: To make herself happy, caring for others will always come first to her, but making herself feel okay is a close second.

MENTAL CHARACTERISTICSKnown Languages: English, German and French
Lures: "In a person or..? This is a very loaded question I don't like it.."
Savvies: Very med-savvy, as her anything from anatomy and physiology to intubating someone with a collapsed airway, Ryan is your gal!
Ineptities: How someone can harm another person with no regret or second thoughts.
Hobbies: She loves to sing and play her guitar, but she hardly has time and isn't that good of a singer, at least in her own opinion.
INTELLECTUAL CHARACTERISTICSLogical-Mathematical: "Ah, my strong suit! You have to be good at math and logic to quickly fix an emergency situation!"
Spatial: If it has to do with anatomy and physiology, she is very good at mapping it out in her head, other than that, not so much..
Linguistic: Very eloquent, when she has a clear mind, to say the least. Though, get her embarrassed or upset and she becomes a stuttering, stumbling, idiot with the vocabulary of a 10 year old.
Bodily-Kinesthetic: She is very clumsy when she isn't focused, but when she is, she will move quickly and as fluidly as much as she needs to.
Musical: Very little rhythm, limited to strumming a guitar. "Hey i'm not that bad!" She can sing beautifully but she doesn't like her voice, so someone has to really have her trust for her to sing in front of them.
Interpersonal: She works very well with others and has a great level of empathy and sympathy, but most of it comes from her developing good bedside manners for her job.
Intrapersonal: Only one word to describe finding herself: Lost.
Naturalistic: She is fairly good at understanding her natural surroundings.
Existential: Not very well, for the only things she really has studied are things that have been proven across an entire species with set ways to fix and cure things.
PHILOSOPHICAL CHARACTERISTICSMorality: She is still trying to figure out the lines between good and evil, or trying to determine if that line even exists anymore.
Perception: "Very much so a realist, though I like to look at the brighter side of things. The best way to describe the way I think: It's not whether you think of the glass as half empty or half full, but whether or not you can realize the glass is refillable."
SPIRITUAL CHARACTERISTICSReligion: Family was devoutly Christian, turning her away from being pinned to a certain religion because she couldn't handle all the rules and expectations that comes with it.
