Summary

I am a woman called to support other women during pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. I started my journey serving women through birth doula work. After attending many births I felt the calling for Nursing. I feel being an RN in the near future I will be able to make an even greater impact than I did with my doula work. I desire this nurse externship to grow towards that goal.
