Occupation Registered Nurse
Location Central Valley, CA, United States
Introduction Age: 40; Current Location: Central Valley, CA; Hometown: Upstate NY; Job: Registered Nurse working on a mixed Telemetry and Step-down Unit at a quickly growing hospital, Progressive Care Certified Nurse (PCCN); 2016 Goals: continue to cherish the time with friends and family, continue to get in better shape and lose more weight, continue to make a considerable dent in my student loans, redefine my relationship with God, continuing my education in my career by attending more classes, possibly get another certification.
Interests Born and raised in Upstate NY (yes, the parts that has mountains and lakes and is God's country). After years of struggling I went back to school for Nursing at the age of 30 ... after graduating I moved to Central NC where I had amazing chances for learning more while working for an amazing hospital. After 3.5 years I moved once again to Central Tennessee fell in love with the area but not the hospitals. For the past 3 years I have mixed my career with something I love to do, travel ... Travel Nursing. However ... I am a homebody at heart and while I loved traveling I was starting to hate the constant packing and moving. Plus I want to go back to school. Surprisingly ... I found my heart to be in love with the Central Valley of California (surprising I say cause I always thought I'd end up back in TX or TN when I stopped traveling). Now I am starting my new adventure as a "Cali Girl" and learning all about West Coast living as I have been basically a East Coast Girl! Outside of work, what is that? Just kidding, I love spending time with family and friends. I am a hopeless romantic looking for someone who loves to explore my new area with me, or just sit at home and watch a good movie or read a good book; but most of all loves God as much as I do.
Favorite Movies That's hard ... I worked at a movie rental place for a while and love lots of types of movies .... basically one type I really don't like are the horror movies.
Favorite Music I listen to all types, depends on my mood but mostly Christian Contemporary and Country.
Favorite Books Anything written by Karen Kingsbury, Michael Crichton, Mary Higgins Clark, Janette Oke, Beverly Lewis. There are others, but these are my most favorite.
