Summary
After being a massage therapist for many years, I realized I am enthusiastic about helping others. This is why in 2019 I made the decision to return to school for nursing, giving me more opportunities to serve and broaden my skill set. Since August of 2021, I have been working as a nurse in demanding, stressful, and exciting environments, which fully sparks my passion for the nursing profession.
