About Valerie

I am a very kind, gentle and loving individual, who has a lot to offer in the medical field. Nursing is one of the most giving and rewarding careers that one could ever have. I like the fact that I can go above and beyond for my patients. I am extremely proud to have raised 3 children as a single mom while going to nursing school. They are now in College and doing pretty well for themselves. I was born in and raised in Jamaica , I came to this country at the age of 25, had an educational background in business and was self employed at the age of 21. I went to nursing school so I could give more of myself in a positive way.
