Why I Went Back to Nursing After Becoming a Lawyer featuring Irnise Williams

Irnise Williams is a registered nurse, travel nurse, and
practicing attorney. Originally from Connecticut, Irnise attended
Howard University for her undergraduate degree and nursing
school, then worked as a trauma nurse. Irnise was inspired to
become a nurse after multiple positive interactions between the
nurses who cared for her grandparents nurses and seeing what an
impact those nurses made. 



After living in Washington D.C. while the Affordable Care Act was
being drafted and discussed, D.C. was abuzz with all things
healthcare policy and Irnise could not look the other way. 



With her background in nursing, Irnise wanted to explore the
intersection of law and healthcare. After weighing the options of
an advanced degree in policy or a law degree, Irnise was certain
that she would have more opportunities with a J.D. 



Irnise is passionate about maternal health care rights,
reproductive rights, and making sure people understand what
health care is and what it can be. Irnise believes that when
people understand what healthcare can be, they will be able to
advocate for themselves within the healthcare system. Irnise
Williams is the managing attorney of her own practice and
continues to work as a travel nurse.
