Summary
I have been involved with healthcare whether it be personal or professional for many years and it is something I have always had a deep passion for. I am currently a Certified Nursing assistant who goes above and beyond for my residents/patients. I believe someone excels in an environment they enjoy, and it doesn't feel like work when you truly have a passion for what you do, and this is what I love to do, I love helping people and interacting with people which is why I am working towards the next step in becoming a registered nurse and I believe that this path I'm on will help set me up for the future as well as provide me with knowledge and opportunities I wouldn't find elsewhere, and will allow me to be able to provide better care for patients now and in the future. I go above and beyond and want to excel in everything I do.
