Summary

I am currently a Full-time Honors Nursing Student, planning on graduating the ADN-RN program at Parkland College in December 2024. I am gaining knowledge and experience through Clinicals at Carle Hospital in different units. I have experience in hospital settings as a Certified Activity Therapist and am currently working as a Certified personal Trainer and Health Coach, but want to transition back to the hospital setting.

I am committed to learning and being a team-player. My passion is seeing people get well and feel their personal best. The combination of being an RN and a health Coach will help to provide excellent care to patients.
