CAREER OBJECTIVE

Excited and ready to make a change! I am a very dedicated and responsible RN with 10+ years of experience within Maternal Child Medicine in a hospital and teaching setting who is looking to make a career transition into Aesthetic Nursing. I am truly excited and willing to make the necessary adjustments to gain experience in this area. I am planning on taking the certification class for Botox injection and Laser hair removal in November from National Laser Institute. I am willing to pay for these classes out of my own pocket.
