About

I am a soon-to-qualify Adult Nursing student at the University of Wolverhampton, due to complete my BSc (Hons) Adult Nursing degree in July 2026 and apply for NMC registration shortly afterwards. I am applying for the Band 5 Preceptorship Nurse position because I am passionate about delivering safe, compassionate, and evidence-based patient care, while developing professionally within a supportive and progressive organisation. My journey into healthcare began at the age of 17 through part-time employment alongside my studies, which helped me develop resilience, adaptability, and a strong work ethic from an early age.
