While I as in high school, I was a peer tutor for two years with the special needs program and I was in the Reserve Officer Training Core (ROTC) for four year. Both of these classes helped shape who I am now with my work ethic and the patience I need to work this field. I went to University of the Cumberlands for college and majored in human services but did not complete the program. I then enrolled and completed the CNA program.
