I live with a rare disease and multiple (unpreventable) autoimmune diseases and decided to be proactive.
Why Nursing—My Why
I took initiative and began attending trainings, workshops, education events, and webinars. I have had many experiences of being ignored, experiencing medical racism, a lack of continuity of care, and misogyny.
I'm not interested in attempting to change a system that has fought hard to normalize its harmful existence.
My goal is to help create another lane for marginalized BIPOC, Two-Spirit, and Indigenous people. I want to help create care in marginalized communities by marginalized providers.
