Union City, California, United States
I’m a California Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and pre-nursing student currently working on hands-on patient care experience at Driftwood Healthcare Center, while completing my nursing prerequisites at Ohlone College. My clinical foundation began during my junior year at James Logan High School through Mission Valley ROP’s Nursing Assistant program, where I completed an internship at Aegis Living, followed by formal CNA clinical rotations at Baywood Court in Castro Valley. My long-term goal is to continue expanding my clinical experience, transition into an acute-care hospital setting, and ultimately become a Registered Nurse with a pathway toward becoming a Nurse Practitioner, with a strong interest in cardiovascular nursing, though i'm still interested in any! I’m especially interested in connecting with CNAs, nursing students, new-graduate RNs, and healthcare professionals to learn from their experiences, seek guidance, and gain insight into the Bay Area healthcare environment. I’m always open to hearing about the paths that brought others into healthcare!
