I worked as teller and cashier, I didn't like it. So I became a Certified Nursing assistance in 2000. In 2004, I started working as a Life Skill Associate/Residential Aide. I loved it. while working, I obtain my associate degree in Behavioral Science, graduating with honor from Delaware County Community College in 2007. I was granted a scholarship to attend Widener University in 2008, because of family constraints, I left Widener. By 2010, I enrolled in Capella University studying Psychology, I withdrew from Capella in 2012 to obtain a Nursing license. I became a License Practical Nurse from Delaware County Technical School of Nursing in 2013 and in 2014, I obtained my bachelors in Psychology from Capella University.
