Spring 2025 Scholarship Winner Emily Cervantes

Angelina College

Emily’s interest in healthcare began in high school, where she graduated as a certified nursing assistant with plans to pursue nursing. While working as a medical assistant at a local family clinic, Emily discovered her passion for sonography. She frequently encountered delays or the need to refer patients elsewhere due to a lack of onsite sonographers, sparking her determination to fill this critical gap. “I knew then that there was a shortage of sonographers, and I wanted to be part of the solution,” Emily shared.

After researching the field, Emily was one of nine students accepted into the sonography program at Angelina College. Set to graduate in May 2025, she will be eligible to sit for both her abdomen and OB/GYN registries prior to graduation. She plans to use her scholarship funds to cover certification expenses. Reflecting on her journey, Emily is eager to provide patients with timely, high-quality care. “I look forward to using my skills to ensure that no patient has to wait or be turned away because of a lack of resources,” she said.

BB Imaging is so excited to support Emily as she embarks on this important journey. Her passion for improving patient care and addressing the critical shortage of sonographers is exactly what we value at BB Imaging. We're proud to be part of her story and look forward to watching her grow into a skilled sonographer who will make a real impact in the healthcare community.
