Biography

My name is Abigail Balonis, and I am a senior nursing student at Emmanuel College in Boston, Massachusetts. I am also pursing minors in healthcare management and global and public health. I have a strong passion for pediatric oncology and am especially interested in how holistic, non-pharmacological interventions, like music therapy, can enhance comfort and reduce symptoms such as chemotherapy-induced nausea. This research has allowed me to explore the intersection of emotional and physical care, reinforcing the importance of individualized and compassionate nursing care. As I prepare to graduate, I’m excited to continue advocating for innovative and holistic care strategies for all patients.
