Affiliations
- Being a Registered Nurse for 23 years, I have learned how to separate the two aspects of my life. While I am at work, I am focuse on the assignments I have been assinged. I do not bring my personal life to work because it can cause a distraction. My personal life is filled with opportunities for me to live a a full filling life outside of my job.
