GEAR UP Student Spotlight: Meet Rachel
Rachel Morris lives in Yerington, Nev., where she works as a CNA at South Lyon Medical
Center. She currently attends ºÚÁÏÍø, where she is taking her general education and prerequisite
courses to become a Registered Nurse. After nursing school, Rachel plans to continue
her education to become a Certified Registered Nurse anesthetist.
Growing up, Rachel did not think college was in the realm of possibilities due to
financial barriers. However, with her dreams of becoming a nurse in mind, she pushes
herself to find ways to make college possible. She works full time, commutes an hour
and a half each way to take classes and has completed many scholarship applications
to make her dreams a reality. All of her hard work is paying off!
Rachels favorite quote.
You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself
in any direction you choose. -Dr. Seuss
