ACC Student Spotlight: Christian Paz

February 2, 2017

Christian Paz used to work at Disneyland but didn't see any future for his job.

"Working on rides, you can't really go anywhere from there and I wanted to do something more," Paz said.

Now six months into his medical assistant program at American Career College-Ontario, Paz is one month away from starting his externship and one step closer to beginning a career in healthcare.

Why do you want to be a medical assistant?

I like the idea of working in a doctor's office and being really close to the patients. I think it's really personable job and that's interesting to me.

Why did you choose ACC?

I went to a lot of different schools first and walked around the campus and talked to some people and I liked the campus here more than the other ones. And I liked all the instructors better.

Do you have any advice for students?

Don't be afraid to ask for help because there's a lot of students here that know what they're doing and the instructors are really excellent. If you need extra help at giving extra help and all that stuff so ask a lot of questions.

Do you have a favorite quote?

I think of something my grandpa used to say. He used to always say, "Intuition, speak to me." I think that's really cool and it can mean a lot of different things, but to me it means always listen to your heart and you'll do well.
