About
Growing up in a financially challenging environment, I began working at 14 years old. I managed to balance full-time work and college, putting myself through nursing school while maintaining full-time employment. I have 22 years of experience as LPN and I am now pursuing my RN degree. My goal as an RN is to work in specialty care, such as cardiology or nephrology. Additionally, I plan to complete my BSN online while working as RN.
