I earned my Certification while was in high school in the 10th grade. My ultimate career goal is to become a Registered Nurse but my favorite part about being a caregiver is the patient interaction. I love talking to older individuals and hearing about their lives and accomplishments. They inspire me to never give up on my goals. I also earned my Pharmacy technician certification while in high school and Currently work at Kroger's while being a full time student. I love being a technician but I need a more flexible schedule since I am about to apply for my two year nursing classes. I graduated in the top 15 percent of my graduating class and I have one son who just turned 1 years old. My biggest accomplishment has been raising him to the best of my ability and still continuing school while working. Being a single parent is not an easy life but if you try anything is possible. I have almost two years experience working in the nursing home but I prefer to work with patients on an individual level because the level of car is so much better. I just turned 20 years old and I also over see my grandpa who is 81 years old. This really everything I can think of but be free to ask me any questions.
