I am a newly graduated student from the Mohawk-McMaster RPN program.

I have a heartfelt passion for delivering empathetic, considerate, and holistic patient care. I am eager to bring my dedication and warmth to the interdisciplinary team and expand my knowledge base before completing my CNO licensing. My commitment is to enhance patient experiences, support recovery and dignity, and comprehensively prioritize my clients’ well-being with attentive care and a patient-centered approach.
