Hi! I'm Nicole Anne. I like Disney Movies.

I am a student in CIS2.

The topic I chose was Reducing Child Mortality. Today's world is slowly reaching their goal of reducing the mortality rate lower and lower. I feel that the technology that we have now is more than enough to help those in need, however the problem is not solely because of the technology needing to reach its destination but those who do not use the help to its fullest extent. This subject really matters to me because I really love families. No mother should have to lose their baby because of healthcare negligence.
