PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY

I am a former Nurse Corps Officer whom transitioned out of the Army after 8+ years. In my years in service I was granted many opportunities to acquire a number of skills by serving as a charge nurse the majority of the time coordinating and providing patient within a multidisciplinary team. This helped me excel in my leadership skills and provide safe patient care with excellent critical thinking and communication skills. A majority of my career was spent in Labor and Delivery where my skills and passion for women’s health was nurtured. Furthering my education at Emory University, and starting my career as a provider during the challenging times of the COVID pandemic, I am in search of full-time employment at a respectable company to continue providing excellent care to the community.
