Hey Everyone,


I am an IT focused career individual who just decided to make the jump to the Nursing field. My current field is so unrewarding and I hope that help people prove to be a bit more interesting. I am a 28 year old, Caribbean American  black male and


I made a deal with the proverbial devil and I am an Everest College student. It's not a prestigious school but it had no waiting list, is accredited and will allow me to wrap up my ADN in 2 years as oppose to the current 2.5 + 2 years waiting list average length of time in the NoVA area. I've chosen speed over prestige and I hope it doesn't affect me once I am done.
