About Me

My name is Riley Martian, I am a 24-year old woman currently residing in Kamloops. I respect and acknowledge that I am guest living and studying on the ancestral, traditional, and unceded territory of the Secwepemc Nation.

I am in my fourth year of the Bachelor of Science in Nursing program at Thompson Rivers University. I anticipate to graduate in April, 2023. I have a fiancé named Kenny, who works in the mining industry, a two-year-old son named Lachlan, and a charcoal lab named Rocco. My little adventure-seeking family loves to spend time outdoors exploring nature.

My current nursing placement is in the home health division, in which I work closely with clients and their families to promote health and wellness. I am passionate about helping others, leading by example, and being an advocate for change. I channel my energy into empowering my patients to make informed decisions about their health, wellness, and environment. 

Outside of nursing, I am very passionate about travelling to new countries and immersing myself in their culture. I find a great deal of value in learning about new cultural practices and perspectives and new ways of living. Each culture offers a unique lesson that enables me to grow on a personal and professional level. I enjoy pushing myself beyond my comfort zone and broadening my way of thinking. Each country I have visited has offered a unique experience that has contributed to who I am today. The world has so much to offer, and I cannot wait to travel more and learn.
