About me
I decided to pursue my degree in nursing as a second career after I saw the end of a 34 year marriage to my husband and business partner approaching. I started nursing school at the age of 55 and graduated with my ASN degree at 57. I started working while continuing my education online and obtained my BSN at the age of 59. I am now sixty years old and working on my Masters degree while working as a traveling nurse fulltime on a Stroke/Neuro unti in Tennessee and PRN on a Mother/Baby unit in North Carolina. I found school much easier now than when I first attended college at seventeen. I currently have a 4.0 in graduate school, when I left college the first time at twenty two years old after five years I was on academic probation! I have found that when you really have a dream to pursue that there is nothing that can hold you back.
