Maddy Ancheta x’27

Middleton native Maddy Ancheta chose UW–Madison for its close-knit community and abundant student resources. She said that peer mentors, a phenomenal advising team, tutoring, the CTEN labs, and proximity to many hospitals made the program stand out.

She’s currently interested in women’s health and finds inspiration in connecting with patients and learning their unique stories. Maddy encourages future nurses to explore the many paths nursing offers beyond the clinical setting, including research and education.

Fun fact: Maddy studied abroad in Costa Rica for a summer to learn Spanish.
