Summary

Hello! I am a compassionate and motivated nursing student graduating in December 2025, dedicated to pursuing a career in Pediatrics. My journey into nursing is
deeply personal, having experienced care in pediatrics firsthand, I developed an enduring passion for supporting kids and their families during some of life’s most vulnerable and meaningful moments. I bring a strong work ethic, emotional resilience, and the ability to remain grounded in high-acuity, fast-paced environments. I thrive on collaboration, critical
thinking, and patient advocacy, and I am committed to ensuring every patient feels seen, supported, and safe. Above all, I aspire to grow into a nurse who leads with
both competence and heart, providing the kind of compassionate, family-centered
care that made such a lasting impact on me.
