Before coining some of the most notable phrases and creating some of the most iconic moments in “Real Housewives” history, Kim Zolciak-Biermann worked as a registered nurse.

Back in 2016, the star shared two throwback photos on Instagram which showed her dressed all in white and beaming on her graduation day. “The day I graduated nursing school. I was so damn proud of myself,” she captioned the upload. The star touched on her degree again on the social media site the following year, writing in a since deleted Instagram upload (via Bravo), “I went to nursing school and graduated. Practiced for a few years and loved it.”
