PROFESSIONAL PROFILE

Driven by compassion and a lifelong commitment to helping others, I bring a unique blend of clinical nursing experience, healthcare administration, and community service. My background as a CNA has taught me the value of dignity, empathy, and presence at the bedside, while my medical billing roles strengthened my organization and attention to detail in fast-paced healthcare settings. Through volunteer work in my community, I learned the power of advocacy and cultural sensitivity in reaching people where they are. I am eager to join a team where I can combine these skills to not only provide excellent patient care, but also bring comfort, understanding, and hope to those I serve.
