Hello, my name is Shannon Johnston, I am currently in the ADN program at MiraCosta College. I plan to graduate in 2018 and further my education goals by completing the RN-BSN program. I have been involved in promoting health and wellness in the community as a yoga teacher for the past 11 years and hope to continue this path as an RN. I have spent the past 2 years gaining valuable clinical experience at TCMC and aspire to eventually begin my RN career here. I am compassionate and professional and hope to become part of the Tri-City family.
