\u00a0 \u00a0Chase Frantz is a freshman Nursing major new to Sinclair Community College.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0Although many of Frantz\u2019s formative years were spent in Kettering Ohio, he also resided in both Illinois and Hawaii due to the fact that his father works in the Air Force.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0Many people see Hawaii as the ideal vacation spot, but Frantz has a different outlook: <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cLiving in Hawaii for four years showed that it is really just like anywhere else,\u201d Frantz said.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0Although Frantz feels Hawaii to be ordinary after four years of living there, he claims there are special perks.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cThe coolest thing about Hawaii was probably just being able to go to the beach every day.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0Frantz has also met Dog the Bounty Hunter, who also lived in Hawaii at the time.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cHe was just like he was on TV, loud and obnoxious.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0Frantz\u2019s dad is a nurse in the Air Force, which led to Frantz and his family being relocated to Ohio before Frantz started third grade. Frantz still lives in Ohio in the present day.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0Frantz played the saxophone in many different bands including the marching band, jazz band, and the wind ensemble at Kettering Fairmont High School. While he primarily plays the alto saxophone, Frantz also plays the baritone saxophone.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cIt taught me that practice means a lot,\u201d Frantz said, \u201cI met a lot of new people and some new friends through band.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0Although Frantz has toyed with the idea of Anesthesiology, Psychology and Biology, he has ultimately decided to pursue his degree in Nursing.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0Frantz started his postsecondary education at Wright State University majoring in Biology, but beginning this semester has decided to attend Sinclair.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cSinclair just makes more sense for me financially,\u201d Frantz said, \u201cI have heard that their Nursing program is a great place to start.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0Many of Frantz\u2019s good friends also attend Sinclair, which was a large contributing factor to his decision.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0Frantz\u2019s decision to pursue Nursing came from a passion to help those who need it. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0\u201cI\u2019ve always liked helping people, and for what I want to do in life Nursing is a good start.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0In his free time, Frantz enjoys activities such as video games and visiting the gym. His ideal video game is one with a deep backstory, so he can enjoy the benefits of a well written story with the instructiveness of a video game. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0A good chunk of his spare time not at school is spent working at Arepas & Co., a Colombian restaurant in Kettering.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0Frantz plans to further his education beyond Sinclair later in his life, possibly attending medical school in the future. He plans to continue to live in the city of Dayton practicing nursing in local hospitals, and continuing his life goal to help people.<\/span><\/p>\n
