What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a challenging role where I can support patients and teams through strong anesthesia coordination, patient communication, and customer relations, while using my organization, leadership, and troubleshooting skills to improve OR efficiency.

I’m a healthcare professional focused on patient support, safe perioperative processes, and smooth communication across the surgical team. I bring a blend of clinical assistance and coordination experience—helping ensure patients are prepared, informed, and supported before and after procedures.

As an Anesthesia Coordinator, I develop and assign anesthesia coverage schedules, manage staffing needs, and communicate changes to nursing and anesthesia staff. I also handle anesthesia supply inventory, ordering, and equipment readiness so procedures can run without delays.

Previously, I worked as an Anesthesia Technician, anticipating needs of the licensed anesthetist and supporting regional, epidural, and spinal blocks and general anesthesia setup. I use aseptic technique, assist with invasive line preparation and monitoring, maintain AORN-aligned cleaning/sterilization practices, and troubleshoot anesthesia delivery systems and related equipment.

I also bring hands-on patient care and customer-facing strengths from roles as a Patient Care Technician and Customer Service Representative. I’m known for organization, attention to detail, and problem-solving, and I’m committed to continuous improvement and professional development in every setting.
