I enjoy helping people and i have a passion for it, I'm going to school to become an RN. I've always enjoyed helping people in need I fell into caring for people from my own life experiences. I take care and treat everyone that i help as if it were my own family or how I would like to be treated. I have had to take care of my own family starting at the age of 15, so that is why I chose this career path. I love to help others, I'm easy to get along with, open minded, enjoy others company, I treat everyone with respect and always treat others how I would like to be treated. my personal achievments that I'm proud of is that I became a cna and a Phlebotomist, and I'm on the right path to making my dream of becoming an RN come true.

i am a compassionate person who enjoys interacting with others and helping them with their needs. This started when I took care of my Grand parents in their later years. After coming to the US I chose to follow up with this as a career. After about a year of working in the field I got married to my Husband who was in the military after which I had to quit work to follow him to his duty stations. After his Military retirement. we moved here but I was unable to work due to having to take care of my severely Autistic son. but now I have a chance to go back to it.
