After working as a medical illustrator and a stint in the Air Force, I went back to school - the University of Illinois at Chicago - to earn my BSN. With some solid life experience under her belt, I'm enthusiastic (most of the time) about jumping into the nursing pool, although it can be a challenge to make progress on the pathway to become an RN.
My goal is to give you insight on what I have learned, both academically and professionally. To me, life is multifaceted and lessons learned often are in a multitude of arenas. I hope my blogs give you inspiration, encouragement and wisdom as you embark on your journey to becoming a professional nurse.
