Breakthrough to Nursing Director - Janelle Singson

Hi y’all, I’m Janelle Singson (she/her), a Track 1 Junior and one of your BTN co-directors for the 2022-2023 academic year! As someone interested in pursuing a career in nursing education and committed to serving underrepresented communities, I have a huge passion for student success and outreach.
Get to know a bit about me!
  • I’ve lived in San Diego my whole life
  • I absolutely love comic books (hmu if you read DC, Marvel, or Boom Studios!!!)
  • My music taste has been described as being that of a middle-aged dad
During my time as one of your BTN directors, I hope to push the boundaries of this committee and dedicate my time to diversifying our profession by working with cultural and identity organizations throughout the San Diego area. And although the mission statement of our committee involves accomplishing serious and impactful work, we also aim to have fun! If you’re interested in making a difference and becoming a part of a tight-knit community, join the BTN committee!!! I’m so excited to work with you all and I hope to see where this year takes us :))

Breakthrough to Nursing Director - Bella Rodriguez

Hi guys! My name is Bella Rodriguez (she/her), I am one of your BTN co-directors and I am a Track 1 Junior. I am extremely excited and honored to have the opportunity to spread the joy of nursing alongside hardworking, inspiring students. As BTN co-director I hope to open the door of this amazing profession to aspiring students in communities of all shapes and sizes! I’d love to see all of your beautiful faces joining the BTN family in making a difference for the future of nursing. 

A little bit about me … 
I am absolutely obsessed with helping the tiny humans!! My goal is to become an L&D or NICU nurse here in SD. Outside of school you can catch me in the gym or baking! I love country music (I know, not a fan favorite LOL) and late nights with friends <3 

Can’t wait to see all of y’all this year! Please do not hesitate to reach out :)
