I have a Bachelor of Science from Vanderbilt University in Cognitive Studies. After graduating from college, I worked as a production assistant at WNET/Thirteen where I discovered that working in a cubicle wasn’t what I had in mind after graduating. I decided to pursue nursing since it seemed to be the only profession where I would not have to pretend to be something I was not for the sake of money. I graduated from Hostos Community College in June 2012 and received my license later that summer. I am on track to finish my BSN in May 2014.
