When it comes to choosing our career goals, most of us find it a very daunting task.

Education and professional background
My name is Ijeoma Onyejiji. I am a married woman with four children and I reside in Los
Angeles in California with my family. Previously I used to live in Nigeria from where I shifted to
United States in 2008. Since my childhood, my ambition was to become a nurse. My
grandmother was a traditional medical practitioner from whom I picked up basic art of nursing. I
was her helping hand in her work and she used to call me her personal nurse. She supported me
in pursuing the Nursing profession, even when nursing was not a much-recognized profession in
Nigeria.
