I was born with a nurturing personality type. There is nothing I enjoy more than taking care of others in need. As years have passed I have discovered there is no job more rewarding for me than to take care of another human, helping them to have a safe yet enjoyable day. I am proud of the fact that I have only two years left before I'll hold my BSN and I am proud that I spend 6 months of 2014 being my 92 year old grandfathers sole caretaker. Lastly, I am getting my minor in gerontology as I love to spend time with older generations.
