VOLUNTEER EXPERIENCE:
Medical Student, 01/10
Organizes Dominican Republic Medical Aid Support. Mobilizing our largest emergency
response to date, we arrived in Haiti just 24 hours after the earthquake and immediately began
treating casualties in a makeshift hospital. At the peak of the crisis, our 408 medical volunteers
saw as many as 1,000 patients a day while training Haitian health care workers. Following a
comprehensive emergency response, we implemented long-term programs in Haiti including
cholera treatment, primary health care, water and sanitation, and disaster preparedness.
Registered Nurse, 8/05
Hurricane Katrina as a registered nurse with experience in providing disaster relief and
leadership amid chaos. As an RN I was trained to recognize when clients need professional
services beyond the scope of the immediate care provided by the disaster team, and
referrals to outside agencies are frequently made for those clients in need of long -term
counseling and support, which is received in a timely manner.
