"Listen up future Nurse?!" We are here to serve the next generation of black nurse leaders by capturing black aspiring nurses in the pre-nursing phase as they apply to nursing school. As the "Black Pre-Nursing Coach", my mission is to be the "voice of consideration for Black future nurses". From our online school and social media to our podcast, I am excited to share my years of experience everyone I serve. It is well known for Black Health, that its helps to have someone to take care of you that looks like you espcially with similar lived experiences. To make sure that happens, black aspiring nurses need to know what to do and how to get there. It helps in the jouRNey to hear from someone that's been where you've been and where you're headed.
