About

My name is Erika Fernandez and I am seventeen years old. I am the oldest of my siblings and will be a first generation college student. I will be entering the campus of Arlington this fall to begin my goal of being a travel nurse. Once I successfully succeed in that part of my goal, I will travel the world helping others before settling down to earn my degree to become a nurse practitioner.

Goals and interests

Career goal

My current goal is to graduate from High School with a few scholarships. To avoid having a massive student debt. I will be attending the University of Arlington starting August and will be majoring in nursing. I will then get an internship into a hospital where I will get professional experience and get a taste of what my daily life will look like in the future. My main goal is to become a travel nurse and enjoy learning about new cultures as well as doing what I love. Which is helping the ill and aiding them back to health.

Graduate school interests

I plan on traveling around the world nursing the ill back to good health. I will do this until I am older. Then I plan on entering school once again and becoming a nurse practitioner.

Outside the classroom

I enjoy being creative by expressing myself through art. Listening to music and learning the choreography fascinates me. I also enjoy helping my community by volunteering in community service.
