Goals and interests

Career goal

I want to explore different areas of the Nursing field before specializing. However, currently I am most drawn to working in Substance Use Disorders - Recovery Treatment center. I started working in this field since 2016 and found it most fulfilling. I want to pursue my Masters in Nursing and possibly specialize as a Psych Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP).

Graduate school interests

I am interested in pursuing my Masters in Nursing and specialize as a Psych Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. However, I am open to other specialties, however I have found this area has been the most rewarding to me so far.
