Hi! My name is Jillian Dinneen, and I am 20 years old. I am a nursing major at the University of New England. I plan to become a labor and delivery nurse practitioner. I have been passionate about nursing since I was in sixth grade, and I can’t wait to begin clinicals. I am from Merrimack New Hampshire. I love summertime, the beach, being outside, being with friends and family, thrifting, and cooking. I have been a server at an Italian Restaurant back home for over 4 years. I have also been on student council since middle school, and I still am today for the UNE class of 2026. UNE was my top choice because it has a great nursing program and it’s right on the beach. I grew up spending my summers at Old Orchard Beach and I love being only 15 minutes away from a spot I have tons of memories from!
