What I'm looking for

I seek a patient-centered clinical role where I can apply hands-on medical assisting skills, advance toward an LPN role, mentor staff, and contribute to efficient, compassionate care.

I am a dedicated medical assistant with nine years of hands-on experience supporting physicians across multiple specialties, including OB/GYN, Pediatrics, Internal Medicine, and Pulmonary Medicine. I consistently deliver accurate vitals, phlebotomy, specimen collection, and strong patient advocacy that improve patient experience and clinic efficiency.

I have supported fast-paced practices and held responsibilities ranging from scheduling and medical record management to medication refills, INR monitoring, and assisting with procedures and pulmonary function testing. I have supervisory experience training staff, coordinating workflows, and ensuring compliance with OSHA, HIPAA, and infection-control standards.

I hold a Medical Assistant Certification and Pharmacy Technician certification, and I am currently pursuing an Associate Degree in Nursing (LPN). I bring a patient-centered approach, attention to detail, and a commitment to delivering high-quality, compassionate care.
