OBJECTIVE: I am seeking a position within your organization, to promote

health and wellness. As a Nurse Practitioner in a Supervisory role, I have

developed advanced clinical training, as well as leadership skills with

extensive administrative knowledge. I am seeking a position that will

allow me to do the following:

. Utilize my clinical experience to provide disease state information and

clinical education to clients for prevention and health promotion.

. Provide clients with interactive and engaging training and clinical

expertise.

. Respond compliantly, timely, and appropriately to clinical

education/resources and updates as warranted.

. Attend and provide clinical information and scientific presentations at

national, regional, and local meetings.

. Provide support that is of value to the organization and it's employees.

. Cover local and national meetings, for engaging and enlightening trends

and to remain informed of changing prevention and treatment paradigms.

PEER OVERVIEW:

My current role as a Bone Marrow Transplant Nurse Practitioner, in addition

to my years working in both solid/hematologic malignancies and internal

medicine, has provided me with educational and clinical resources to excel

in any clinical or administrative field. I am a dynamic speaker, adept at

providing high level scientific presentations and disease state information

or community based presentations which are applicable to participants.

Additionally, I have the ability to tailor teaching to a more personal,

individualized, communication. I continue to keep abreast of on-going

changes in treatment paradigms and prevention options. As a Supervisor, I

am familiar with the needs of both the clinic patient as well as the

operational challenges of a growing and developing Bone Marrow Transplant

facility (currently an NCI Center of Excellence). As a result, I have

developed excellent communication and working skills, which apply to

clients, colleagues or administrative professionals. I am passionate about

client care and possess a vast knowledge of Palliative or Quality of Care

for clients. If provided with the opportunity, I believe I would be an

excellent addition to your team.
