Secretary: Charmaine Ocampo
Hello everyone! My name is Charmaine Ocampo and it is a pleasure to be your HISNA Secretary for 2016-2017. I attend Hawaii Pacific University and will be graduating in December 2016. The health field has always been my interest and with the passion to care for others, this makes the perfect recipe for nursing. I have always been involved with other individuals who want to make a change and be an advocate for the community. One of my goals in this organization is to make changes and improvements possible. I want to be a part of the evolvement in HISNA and hope to impact the rest of the nursing student body. I believe that having an organized and well-planned goal(s) is key to success!
