I have known Angela for the time she has been a USM nursing student. She has grown tremendously during that time. She has endured setbacks and obstacles with determination and strength which I believe is essential in surviving her nursing career. She continues to be resilient in her coursework and clinical in an effort to be as knowledgeable as possible about the subject at hand. Angela will be an amazing nurse because of her strength in character and her resolve to learn what it means to be a nurse. I am proud of where she is in her academic career, and I am excited to see what her future holds for her nursing career.
