About Me:

After highschool I began volunteering at Middlesboro F.D. where my dad is a full-time firefighter, at the same time I went to college to be a nurse (My mother is an RN). I loved firefighting/ems, but I thought a career as a nurse had more money and oppurtunities. After graduating college and working as a nurse for a while I got burned out pretty quick and figured out that the pay is not everything and the retirement is nothing. I recently started working full time at MFD and Still practice PRN as a nurse. I enjoy my job and that means alot.
