My Story
Kierra was raised in Westchester County, NY, where her parents and grandmothers instilled in her the importance of education. As a first-generation college graduate, she earned a Bachelor's degree in Health Science and Community Health from Mercy College.
Her passion for healthcare led her to pursue an accelerated second-degree nursing program, where she began as a nursing tech before transitioning to the medical step-down unit as a registered nurse. She later moved to the Coronary Care Intensive Unit, initially aiming to become a CRNA. However, the COVID-19 pandemic shifted her focus, revealing her deep joy in supporting mental health.
Seeing a gap between medical and psychological care, Kierra decided to pursue a Master of Science in Nursing, specializing in Psychiatric Mental Health, which she is currently enrolled in. She is known for her ability to build strong rapport with patients, always providing care with empathy and kindness and treating every patient as if they were family.
Kierra transitioned to travel nursing, working in top hospitals along the East Coast and specializing in various ICU and other nursing specialties. Her love for travel, quality time with friends and family, and passion for self-care reflect her balanced approach to life.
Our
Story
The vision for Journey with Ki, LLC emerged during a pivotal season of my own transition. I had crafted a plan for my life, but God had different intentions and interpreted my plans, causing me to pause and reflect. In this time of stillness, I underwent significant self-discovery and learned that true strength is developed throughout the journey, not merely at the destination. This period of growth stretched me while I still had to balance the demands of life.
It led me to wonder how many other women are navigating similar paths and are unsure how to navigate their season. Ideas began to flow, and I wrote my first mission and vision statement for Journey with Ki, LLC. Though I was uncertain about the process, I felt a strong desire to make a positive impact on others.
​
Journey with Ki aims to empower women to harness their inner strength and keep progressing, regardless of the obstacles they face. I firmly believe in the power of representation and want to showcase that it is indeed possible to lead a successful, multifaceted, and fulfilling life, even as it evolves. Life may not always go as planned, but each twist and turn presents an opportunity for growth, allowing us to continuously become the best version of ourselves.
