Summary
I am currently a second-year nursing student at Cerritos College. I received my CNA certificate in November 2022 and am now looking for a job in the healthcare field. I truly enjoy taking care of people and hope to help those around me achieve better health. My goal is to find a job that allows me to care for others, as this would be a valuable step on my journey to becoming a nurse. I have 3 years of experience working in a skilled nursing facility and 10 months of experience working in the Subacute Unit at West Anaheim Medical Center. I also worked as a home health aide, taking care of my uncle at his home. I am confident in my ability to communicate effectively and understand others. I am not afraid of challenges when transitioning into a new job. I am eager to learn new things every day. Although I may not have much experience yet, I am always open to gaining new knowledge. I hope to find a job related to healthcare, which aligns with my current studies.
