Four years of sheer dedication and perseverance finally paid off when she topped her class.

As for her success, she said, “Nothing comes easy and free so I took every day lectures seriously, collected notes, went to the library, and referred 2-3 textbooks for a particular topic. Adjustments were a very vital part of my nursing career where I had to adapt to things I would normally find unpleasing. But it finally paid off.
In regards to her future goals, Noryang remarked that career as a nurse is rewarding with plenty of room for advancement and development. She said, “my long term goal is to be a Head Nurse of an entire ward in a health Institute. However, to get there, I need to have a strong foundation. I believe in everyday learning and will always strive for new advancements and adapt to it”.
