A little about me
Background/Education
I have seven years of nursing experience, including four years as a nursing assistant on a cardiac telemetry floor in the United States and three years as a nurse apprentice abroad. I completed my 144-hour capstone in the Emergency Department (Mercy Hospital) during my final semester of nursing school. I am currently working as a Registered Nurse in an advanced home care setting, caring for patients with tracheostomies and ventilator dependence. I obtained my Associate's degree from Anoka-Ramsey Community College. I am currently enrolled at Minnesota State University, Mankato. My graduation date is set for the fall of 2026.
