Professional Summary
I am currently a Senior at Southern Nazarene University pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in
Nursing. I have gained pharmacy and clinical nursing experience in the past three years, along
with superb interpersonal skills and strong critical thinking. I am determined and excited to be
apart of the medical field and gain experience before obtaining my RN licensure in the Summer
of 2016. I lack only one semester of my BSN, which isn’t offered until the Spring of 2016. So
until then my goal is to save up funds in order to pay for my last semester of college and to gain
as much clinical/medical experience as possible; and also to work in an environment where I
would love to have a career as a Registered Nurse.
