Through the 本色视频online Public Health Program, I was able to successfully continue working full-time as a nurse while taking care of my family. As I started my journey, I was able to apply the skills I was learning in the program, into my daily role as a nurse. Since graduating in December 2022, I have been promoted into a higher leadership position that combines my skills and experience as a nurse, along with the knowledge learned through the public health program, to better serve those in need and be a representative of God.
