About Katherine Weaver, BSN, RN, CMSRN

Katherine started her nursing career after graduating nursing school in 2016 and after a few years, realized that the profession was lacking in professional precepting for the new generation of nurses. She saw the need to build a community for nurses and nursing students to feel valued and flourish in their own careers. In 2019, she built her YouTube channel, Nurse Katherine, to help educate, inspire, and mentor nursing students and registered nurses everywhere—a mission she continues to fulfill today.
