Hi! My name is Amy Sun and I'm an licensed practical nurse (LPN) who spends as much of my spare time as possible working with community programs to provide health care to those who can’t afford it. I'm a nature lover who enjoys the freedom I feel in the great outdoors and I appreciate the many opportunities I have to see wildlife of all kinds.
I currently live in Colorado where I have many opportunities to express my dedication to caring for others and for enjoying the many beautiful natural sites in the state.
