About Leandra

If you were to ask any of my family members or friends to describe me in 3 words they would be, compassionate, nurturing and caring. I myself can see where this to be true. I am a junior at University of North Florida studying Long Term Care, and plan to continue my education to receive my Bachelors in Nursing concentrating in Gerontology . I always knew I had a passion for the elderly, even as a little girl. I have always treasured my relationships with my grandparents. 7 years ago, my grandma was diagnosed with Cancer, I spent countless hours spending time with her, taking her to appointments, grocery shopping, house keeping, staying with her in hospitals, taking her shopping, etc. 4 years ago, I lost her, and since then I've had a calling to care for seniors, and provide them with the care and companionship they need. A personal achievement I am proud of is being an ambassador for the United States as a Foreign Exchange Student for Rotary International, to be accepted requires an intense application process, as well as a panel interview, as it is very competitive. After being selected out of 100 applicants, to be 1 of the 20 students studying abroad in 2013, I spent 9 months in Spain, learning the culture, language and meeting amazing people. With this achievement, it proves my perseverance and dedication to shoot for the stars at all times.
