Before nursing school, I was...
A certified nursing assistant (CNA) at UF Health Shands Hospital in Gainesville, FL. Go Gators!
I chose Emory because...
Emory has an enriched curriculum, unbeatable clinical experiences, and extremely supportive professors.
My favorite thing to do in Atlanta is...
Go to Piedmont Park, run the Atlanta Beltline, and grab brunch with my nursing school friends!
What has been the highlight of nursing school so far?
Hands-on simulation labs mimicking real patient scenarios.
