Professional Summary

I’m a motivated and adaptable college sophomore at Columbia State Community College, working toward my Associate Degree in Nursing. I graduated high school at 16, which shows my dedication and ability to thrive under pressure. I’ve worked in a wide variety of settings — from being a speaker on tour with MercyMe, to working as a food runner and floor representative, to managing a barn and giving showings and tours. I’ve also babysat, worked in a kitchen baking cookies, served as a host at a fine dining restaurant, and more. These experiences have helped me build strong skills in communication, teamwork, and problem-solving. I’ve completed a CNA program and earned my certificate of completion — I’ve passed one exam and just need to retake the other. I’m eager to gain hands-on experience in the medical field as I continue working toward my dream of becoming a nurse. Right now, I live in Columbia, TN for school, but I plan to move to Nashville once the next semester starts. Education
