Several well-known actors have continued to work in traditional jobs after gaining fame through their TV or movie appearances.

Jennifer Stone is renowned for her part in the popular Disney Channel series "Wizards of Waverly Place."

In the TV series that aired from 2007 to 2011, she portrayed Harper Finkle, the eccentric best friend of Alex Russo, who was portrayed by Selena Gomez.

She was inspired to become an emergency room nurse after her own diagnosis with type 1 diabetes at the age of 20, following her time on "Wizards of Waverly Place."

Stone said to People, "I decided to switch my major from psychology to something that would help me better understand myself and my body, as well as enable me to assist others."

"The most challenging part of a diagnosis story is the uncertainty of what's happening with your body and how to treat it."

Stone graduated from nursing school in December 2019, just before the pandemic began.

Despite being a nurse now, Stone is still recognized from her time on the Disney Channel show.

"Despite being fully covered in PPE during the pandemic, people still recognized me due to my red hair and unique voice. I was astonished by this occurrence," she shared with Healthline.

She said that she looks at bringing joy to someone on a rough day as a gift, since no one wants to go to the ER.

Stone's days on "Wizards of Waverly Place" are not completely over.

David DeLuise and Stone host the "Wizards of Waverly Pod," where they revisit episodes of the popular show.

In 2016, she revealed that she did an internship with Disney World and was later hired by the company.
