Your Purpose. Our Mission.

God has called me to this profession and work, and I am so blessed to have the opportunity to invest in the next generation of nurses here at CSU. Being able to answer God's calling on my life while serving, teaching, and elevating our students is an honor and privilege. I truly see a difference in the medical community when I see our students represent CSU. Our faculty and students are literally the hands and feet of Jesus as we care for you.
