The Biography of Jolene Toney

Miss Mustique Co. Ltd.

I was born on 15^th August, 1985 to Ms. Susan Toney and Mr. Michael David. Although I always knew my father, he was not continuously present in my life as I grew up. This meant that my mother was really a single parent and she had to work exceedingly hard to support and raise me and my two brothers and one sister. 

I attribute my stalwart nature and positive attitude in life to my mother; watching her face hardship with dignity and a sunny outlook has definitely influenced the person that I am today.

My motto in life is to “Always stand for Dignity, Pride and Protection”.

I am a trained registered nurse and I am currently attached to the Georgetown district. I enjoy caring for people; this is the main reason I chose nursing as a career. One of my goals in life is to always be an exemplary person; since nursing calls for discipline and professionalism it was inevitable that I would be able to achieve this goal through nursing.

Nursing as a career is challenging, especially when it comes to the training. It calls for discipline, sacrifice and for focus. However, although it is challenging my dedicated and determined attitude towards whatever I do coupled with my approach to life (as epitomized by my motto) has brought me through. It is almost as if every hard won success that I have had in my life was meant to be and I do not take any of it for granted.

I have achieved and accomplished much through Nursing; it has earned me respect from my peers and the community in which I live and it has helped me to remain focused and to have a life-long career.

Although Nursing is my chosen profession, I have had over the years a keen interest in several things. At one point I contemplated being a Hair Stylist, a Seamstress and a Medical Doctor. As I have grown as a person and achieved the goals I set for myself my interests have changed because my expectations of what I can achieve in my life have also changed.

My aspiration is to become a Nursing Professor. This career interests me most because I have a passion for imparting knowledge to others. It gives me a sense of self-satisfaction and peace of mind to know that I have helped someone understand something that previously confused them.

I would describe myself as caring, loving and, most of all, simple and down-to-earth.

As a form of relaxation I enjoy putting my feet up and meditating on what next life will bring to me. As I have a hectic and demanding career, it does not allow me much time for other recreational activities.

The one driving force in my life is the thought of success. When I achieve the goals I have set for myself I am satisfied because it gives me a sense of fulfillment and pride.
