Bio

I am an aspiring student nurse, a devoted mother of three, and an avid reader. With my background as a Medical Assistant (MA, AAS) and Board Certified Pharmacy Technician, I hope to become a dynamic Registered Nurse in California. Upon obtaining my ADN/RN in 2024, I plan to continue my higher education journey by obtaining my BSN, MSN, and beyond. I've overcome years of domestic abuse, the trials of teen motherhood, and several financial setbacks to continue my educational journey. I am currently working per diem at my hospital to help care for my youngest daughter who will hopefully soon start preschool. My passion is taking care of others and trying to make the lives of my children and family better.
