Bio

My name is Kaitlyn Gaskins and I am currently a student at Rogers State University! My goal is to finish my Bachelor Degree in Nursing and become a Registered Nurse. I want to get my certification in holistic nursing so that I am able to bring alternate methods of treatment and promote health issue prevention in my hometown! I'm from a very small town with a large percentage of citizens being Native American, who are statistically more prone to health issues, and I've experienced the harmful effects of inadequate healthcare throughout my entire life. I am determined to get my degree and begin making a change in my community.
