About Me

Patient-centered care
across every setting

I am a dedicated and experienced Certified Nursing Assistant with over 10 years of experience seeking to advance my career as a medical assistant. Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a commitment to providing compassionate care to patients in diverse healthcare settings.

Proficient in utilizing electronic medical record systems such as Epic, I prioritize accurate documentation and seamless patient care delivery. My experience spans emergency departments, medical/surgical floors, and specialized pediatric care for medically fragile children.

My strong communication skills, attention to detail, and unwavering dedication to delivering high-quality care have enabled me to make a positive impact on the lives of those I serve - from trauma patients in the ED to the youngest, most vulnerable patients in pediatric care.
