If her name sounds familiar, it's probably because you remember her as the quirky redhead from Wizards of Waverly Place, Harper Finkle. Today she introduced herself as a registered nurse fighting on the "frontlines" of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Congratulations are in order to Jennifer Stone who revealed via Instagram the news. "A very good friend of mine (@maiarawalsh) pointed out to me that today is #worldhealthday," she said, "It is also the day I went from a volunteer, then a student nurse, and now an RN resident. I just hope to live up to all of the amazing healthcare providers on the front lines now as I get ready to join them.
The former Disney Channel actress hopes "to live up to all of the amazing healthcare providers on the front lines now."

"In honor of #worldhealthday I give thanks to all the nurses and health workers around the globe. I’d like to highlight one of my favorite humans on the planet, @jenniferstone who started her first day in the hospital…," Maiara said.
