I made the life decision to pursue a career in nursing rather than continuing in Mechanical Engineering. I understood this would not be an easy transition but I learned early on that if you approach a goal with determination and hard work, nothing is impossible. This is exactly what I plan to do.
I had the opportunity to learn about nursing at a young age. My grandmother and mother are registered nurses. My mother took me to work with her at the nursing home. Subjected to different environments, I learned to communicate with elderly patients and staff. Since then I had the opportunities to shadow hospital staff, which has brought me exposure and reassurance that this is what I want to do.
My goals include achieving a B.S.N. and beginning work. I will excel at nursing and further pursue my career in health and medicine. While working, I plan to further my education into Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP). More importantly, I plan to set a goal to help someone new every day and follow one of my favorite quotes, “You must be the change you wish to see in the world. – Gandhi”
Ultimately, I know that I can do this and do this
