About

I am a motivated nursing student. My passion is helping others and seeing that progression, not only physically, but mentally and spiritually as well. I think the human body is a very fascinating thing and the more we learn about it, the more impressed I am with Gods' creation! I believe I can make a difference in the work place and in peoples' lives by being a nurse and I look forward to the days I get to do so!

Goals and interests

Career goal

By becoming a registered nurse, I intend to bring people to optimal health physically, mentally and spiritually. I plan on working in hospitals on several different floors over my nursing careers. When the time is right and I feel I am a strong nurse, I plan on taking my profession and using it beyond hospitals such as in medical missions, whether that keeps me in the US or beyond it. I want others to feel hope in their health and if I can bring that to where they are, then I feel I will have completed my job path.

Graduate school interests

Grad school may be in the future for me to further my education in nursing. I don't feel it it necessary for my job path, but should feelings change I am open to more education.
