Summary
As an ADN nursing student with three years of direct patient care experience in a Neuro-ICU, I have developed a strong foundation in critical care and a deep compassion for serving individuals in need. Working directly with patients suffering from traumatic brain injuries and strokes has inspired my focused interest in neurology and my long-term goal of advancing to a Nurse Practitioner in this specialty. I am a dedicated learner, eager to grow within my nursing career by championing evidence-based practice and quality improvement to make a meaningful difference in patient outcomes for all populations.
