Summary

I have completed the Practical Nursing program at John A. Logan College in May of 2024, and I am now set to graduate from the Associates Degree of Nursing in May of 2025. In my past job experiences I developed strong customer service and time management skills in fast-paced environments, and demonstrated the ability to thrive in high-pressure situations while maintaining attention to detail and quality. I'm looking to enter the nursing field where my skills can be effectively utilized for patient care.
