Biography

I was born April 9th, 1988, the first of triplets, two girls and a boy. When I was four months old my sister and I were adopted. My birth family kept my brother, and I have an open adoption with them. I was born in California, lived in Pennsylvania until I was seven and then came to New Mexico because of my father's job. I have been very lucky in the family I received. I am blessed with them and how loving they ate. Because I had such a loving home, I felt that I wanted to give back to others. I decided I wanted to be a nurse so I could help people. The fact that there have been many nurses in my family probably helped in my decision.. This year the opportunity arose for me to be a volunteer in our local hospital and I took it. I love working in the hospital, I work in the ER with the nurses and run around getting things for patients. I work on Monday, Saturday and every other Wednesday. I like Saturdays the best because I can go and spend all day there. I get a tremendous amount of satisfaction from this work. Other things that have helped form who I am are ballet, living in a co-housing community, and providing child-care.
