About guest042302019

guest042302019 is a BSN, RN and specializes in Progressive, Intermediate Care, and Stepdown.


My name is Andrew Craig. A year ago I took the plunge and started travel nursing with my wife. She is also an RN. We often work together on the same unit and same specialty. Travel nursing is the best career decision I have ever made! I'm currently working on the MSN of Nursing Education. My life drastically changed when I started making Youtube videos and writing about Travel Nursing. I enjoy educating travel nurses and helping support the Travel Nursing community.
