Will Ciara Miller Quit Nursing For Her Modeling Career? "Honestly..."
The Summer House cast member is finally opening up about the future of her career in both modeling and nursing.
When Summer House's Ciara Miller isn't partying it up in the Hamptons with her friends, she is busy with her careers — multiple. Ciara is a critical care ICU nurse, who also happens to moonlight as a fashion model.
Although these two careers might be at two completely different ends of the spectrum, Ciara doesn't seem to mind at all. In fact, it keeps things balanced in her life. "I love my nursing career," Ciara told during Reality Blurb! during an appearance at New York Fashion Week. "I don't want to lose that. I'm trying to maintain it."
However, she is exploring all facets of her fashion side. Even if that means having to be everywhere and do everything at once. "[With] modeling, I'm a year in so far in New York City, being signed...I'm trying to take every opportunity as it comes...[and] stretch myself as thin as possible, and honestly, just turn over every stone in New York," she noted.
How does Ciara Miller balance careers as a nurse and a model?
However, the nurse did admit that this can be a little exhausting for her to balance both careers, especially since it involves a lot of traveling back and forth between NYC and her hometown of Atlanta, Georgia. Not to mention, a week like this where she has been traveling all across Manhattan to attend shows at all hours of the day during NYFW.
"But I'm tired," she told Reality Blurb! "And people wonder why I'm always in the bed on [Summer House]. It has a connotation that we're lazy, but [I'm doing a lot]."
During an appearance on Something Went Wrong W/ Vinny in early August 2024, Ciara opened up about her life as a travel nurse. This involves her working "three shifts every six to eight weeks" in an Atlanta hospital before traveling back to New York.
Although she is only there for little intervals at a time, Ciara admitted that it's still a hard job. "You're doing 3-month assignments or 18-week assignments, it's chill," she said. "But travel nurses historically get really sh-tty assignments when you're a bedside nurse."
But, she admitted to podcast host, Vinny Guadagnino, that she could not quit, because she finds so much happiness and purpose in nursing. "I can't detach myself from nursing right now, because I'm like, 'What am I gonna do that feels as fulfilling as critical care?' You know? What's on the other side? I live two different lives," Ciara concluded.
