Summary
Starting as a CNA soon as I turned 16 helped me figure out what career I would like to pursue in which is nursing. Now I am a QMA and I plan on still building my skill set and education. I go to Ivy Tech community collage pursing a degree in PN nursing and plan on continuing my education further to RN.
