Graduate Testimonial – Lauren Llauro Associate of Science in Nursing | Keiser University
Graduated May 2025
When I decided to return to nursing school for the second time, I was living at home and working full-time. It was a big leap to leave my job and pursue nursing again, but Keiser University made me feel supported every step of the way. Throughout my time at Keiser, two professors truly left a lasting impact on me—Professors Zerpa and Rivero. From the very first day, they shared not only their vast expertise and knowledge but also a deep sense of compassion and dedication to the nursing profession. Their commitment to our success was evident in everything they did, from their patient guidance and constant encouragement to their ability to challenge us to grow every single day.
More than anything, they taught us how to care for others with genuine empathy and respect. Their unwavering support and belief in me meant the world and inspired me to pursue my career with the same passion and drive that they embody. Professors Zerpa and Rivero weren’t just instructors; they were true mentors and role models who shaped me into the nurse I aspire to be. I am forever thankful for the lasting impact they’ve had on my life and career.
