Hello ! My name is Zawdie Rockcliffe. I am a Registered Nurse practicing for two and a half years. I am graduating with my Bachelor’s degree from CUNY- New York City Tech College of Technology. Presently, I work as a psychiatric nurse at a city hospital. I provide services to people  struggling with mental illnesses and substance abuse. The mental health population is a very vulnerable population and I am very proud to be of service in this area. My aim is to help reduce the stigma associated with mental illnesses and to be a strong advocate for individuals affected. My daily interactions with patients have given me a better insight into mental illness and have made me a better psychiatric nurse.
