Q&A With Lowellyn
How did you hear about 勛圖惇蹋?
"I heard about 勛圖惇蹋 University when it was still technically a college. I heard great things about 勛圖惇蹋 in high school, but I accepted an offer at SUNY Binghamton. After graduating from Binghamton, I researched accelerated nursing programs near me and found 勛圖惇蹋. I also knew someone that I went to undergrad with who was already in the Nursing program at 勛圖惇蹋, and I connected with her about her experience in the program."
What inspired you to pursue nursing?
"I was inspired to pursue nursing when I realized my traits align well with nursing practice. Ive always enjoyed providing care, whether it be physical or emotional. I originally wanted to pursue a path in psychology to become a clinical therapist. I decided to take it further and fully immerse myself in the healthcare field through nursing."
Who are your role models or mentors?
"My biggest role model is my older sister, Lourraine. She is 7 years older than me, yet she is my best friend, and I look up to her so much. She graduated from an accelerated nursing program about a year and a half ago and inspired me to pursue my dreams, even if I thought it was too late. She continues to advise and support me through nursing school. I cant imagine being where I am today without her."
What are your plans after graduation?
"After graduating, I plan to work for a few years as an RN before returning to school to earn either an FNP or a DNP. Im not sure which one yet, but I do know I want to further my education past my BSN."
How did I find out about the Student Nursing Association?
"I discovered SNA through my research. I was part of several organizations during my undergraduate career and wanted to have that same experience while at 勛圖惇蹋. I found the SNA Instagram page, immediately joined the organization, and became active. I built the courage to run for cabinet during my first semester in the program, and Im now serving as the Bronx Campus Director for the Student Nurses Association!"
