Dear Hiring Manager,
I am a Doctor of Medicine graduate from the prestigious University of Panama, known for its unwavering dedication to community service and public health. My career journey has seen me traverse various hospitals and medical centers across my homeland, where I've honed my skills in operations and staff management.
One of my most significant roles in Panama was as the head of the Occupational Clinic at the Technologic University of Panama. In this position, I championed preventive healthcare through educational initiatives and tailored health improvement plans for diverse demographic groups. Additionally, I played a pivotal role in shaping Health Care Policies and Public Health strategies for the University. My commitment to education is further underscored by my Master's degree in Higher Education, during which I served as an Assistant Professor in the Anatomy and Physiology Department at the School of Medicine, University of Panama, for three years. My academic pursuits continued with the completion of a Master's in Management from the University of Phoenix, where I graduated with honors. This accomplishment complements my extensive managerial experience spanning over seven years in Blood Banking Operations. Currently, I hold the position of Donor Care Manager in the dynamic San Francisco Bay Area. My tenure in this role has been marked by remarkable achievements, including the transformation of the Donor Care Operations Team from one of the lowest-performing teams on the west coast to the highest-performing team nationwide. This achievement encompasses the development of comprehensive training programs for CMV Drivers and Safety, the modernization of operational equipment, and the recruitment of new Donor Care Supervisors, Team Leads, and Technicians. My forte lies in adhering to stringent guidelines and standard operating procedures, ensuring impeccable quality assurance for both personnel and equipment under my purview. Across all the locations I've overseen, regulatory bodies such as the FDA, AABB, CSL, Cities, and Counties have consistently acknowledged our compliance and order. My exceptional leadership and communication skills have enabled me to collaborate effectively with diverse teams, consistently achieving organizational objectives.
In my capacity as operational manager, I am confident in my ability to leverage my skills and extensive experience to contribute significantly to your organization's success. Best Regards,
Lino Chue De Gracia
