Kevin Eleazer’s Summary

Hello!
I am currently a readmit student at the University of South Carolina, studying Nursing. In 2006 I attained a BA in English Language and Literature, and finding that, though I enjoyed the major and have no regrets about getting it, there was not a lot of work out there that I was interested in that would utilize my major. Thus I have decided to return to school for a degree in a high-demand area.

Outside of school I have worked in many different capacities from heavy labor to waiting tables to substitute teaching. Despite sometimes hating the work, I've always gone at the job 100% and learned everything I could about the work. With pursuing my new major I plan to combine my experience with Literature and Writing with the health care field in order to work as a nurse and improve interoffice communication where ever I work.
