About Jonah Hodes

I am an ambitious nursing student at the University of Tennessee with a passion for wellness, health promotion, and delivering compassionate, evidence-based care. I thrive in acute care settings and enjoy building on what I learn in the classroom by working directly with patients and shadowing experienced professionals. Whether I’m working on the floor, advocating for causes I care about, or collaborating with peers, I bring strong leadership, attention to detail, and a deep sense of purpose to everything I do. I’m especially drawn to roles where I can combine critical thinking, empathy, and teamwork to support patients and healthcare teams alike. I\'m excited to keep learning, growing, and make an impact in the field-one patient at a time.
