I graduated in Dec 2007 as a Registered Nurse from CSI. I was working at Cassia, in Burley while I was going to school for my RN...Before graduation I was looking for a job cause I didint want to stay in Burley, and there was a job opening in St George for the RN Residency Program at Dixie Regional Medical Center. I applied and and got the job. So I packed my car and went home for Christmas for 2 weeks, then I moved to St George and started working on Jan 7. I loved the Program. I was able to go and study more in areas that I am interested in. I spent to 2 weeks on Orthopedic/ Spine unit...and Loved it!! I applied for a job on that floor, I started to work nights on that floor in March when the Residency program was done. Working nights was okay. I liked it being quite and a little more calmer. Then in Oct I was offered a day job and I took it. Its way more busier on days but I love it. I am working on my Bachelor degree now. I took a couple classes from Dixie State this last semester, but I am hoping to be accepted into SUU Bachelor program, I will start in May 2009.

I love St George-- the winters are Awesome! The summers are really cookin though. I live by my brother and his wife, and then my little sister Sarah decided to come to school here at Dixie, she moved here in Aug along with her friend Candace. My cousin Brittany lives with me, she is in Nursing Program here at DSC.
