✨ Student Spotlight: Nadia Atkinson ✨
Nadia Atkinson is a BSN student whose drive, compassion, and determination continue to shine throughout her nursing school journey. With a strong support system behind her and big goals ahead, Nadia stays focused on growing both personally and professionally every step of the way.
A few of Nadia’s favorites:
☕ Favorite local spot: Gabi Cafe on Spring Mountain
🩺 Clinical must-have: Her trifold clipboard packed with quick-reference clinical information
💭 Personal motto: Proverbs 13:4 — “The diligent is fully satisfied.”
🤝 Favorite part of being a student ambassador: Helping students with study tips and connecting with new faces during orientation
Nadia's biggest inspiration is her mom, whose hard work and determination motivate her daily. Watching her mom return to college while supporting their family has shown Nadia that it’s never too late to chase your dreams and work toward your goals.
We are so thankful to have Nadia as part of the Galen family. Her heart for helping others, dedication to growth, and positive influence on fellow students make her such a valued part of our community. 💙
