Tell us a little bit about your journey in the healthcare field?

I became a CNA in 2015 and gained experience working in several home health agencies & retirement communities. In 2021, I became an LVN and have worked as a nurse in more retirement communities & Care Indeed.

What drove you to become a professional Nurse?

I wanted to be able to help current & future clients with the additional knowledge & skills that I’ve gained and continue to gain in the nursing field. I enjoy helping others as a nurse because of the care we’re able to provide for others. I specifically enjoy working with seniors because of the wisdom I can gain from them in return.

What do you like most about your job?

As a healthcare provider, building relationships with seniors is one of the most rewarding aspects of my job. Listening to their stories and having meaningful conversations helps me better understand their needs and medical history. It also creates a sense of compassion and empathy that can be very beneficial to the healing process. By building trust and establishing a rapport with seniors, I can help alleviate their anxiety and stress, creating a more positive and productive healthcare experience.

What do you like to do in your spare time?

I enjoy hiking, reading books, and watching Netflix in my spare time. Hiking in nature helps me clear my mind, reading provides mental stimulation and allows me to escape from the stresses of everyday life, and Netflix is a great way to relax and unwind. These activities provide a healthy balance of physical activity, mental stimulation, and relaxation, allowing me to recharge and come back to my responsibilities with renewed energy and focus.
