Kiana Childs is a 17-year-old Ashland native with desires to run away to California. Childs likes to be  adventurous and loves to chase happiness alongside her friends wherever that may lead her. She enjoys  travel and in June 2021 she enjoyed her weekend trip to San Francisco which helped fuel her desire to continue her schooling in California. Once in college she is considering studying nursing or figuring out a different career path. She is hesitant to commit to nursing due to the mass amount of schooling it requires. She became interested in nursing from her junior year anatomy class. Her desire to possibly jump into nursing is an excellent illustration of Childs’ compassionate and caring personality which she learned from her family. She also says she values meeting new people and tries to learn new things to take into her life like “being kind to others.”  

Childs goes into her nursing desires by telling me she has wanted to be in the medical field since she was 5 years old. As time has gone on she has been able to narrow it down to the field of nursing due to the direct patient contact, that allows Childs to utilize her kind and compassionate personality to impact lives.
