My current goal is to have one year of college completed by the time I graduate from high school. I'm also interested in gaining a CNA prior to my nursing degree. Having my CNA will allow me to help to pay for my education and living expenses as I complete my degree at Kirtland.

It was a tough situation to be in, due to the excessive amount of work I had to do for both high school and college. Every week I had to complete a chapter of my book, which consisted of long sections using words that I have never even heard of in my life, the prolonged chapters were followed by a required one to two-page essay that was due the next week or else it was considered late.
