What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters professional growth and values effective communication.

I am a Medical Education Program Specialist with extensive experience in managing resident training and education. Currently, I work at Advocate Lutheran General, where I oversee the residency management database, ensuring that all onboarding paperwork is processed efficiently and accurately. My role involves facilitating communication between program leadership and residents, which has honed my skills in coordination and administration.

Previously, I served as a Residency Program Coordinator in various medical specialties, where I coordinated recruitment processes, maintained accreditation documentation, and organized educational events. My background in healthcare administration is complemented by my academic achievements, including a Master of Science degree that has equipped me with advanced communication and critical thinking skills. I am passionate about supporting medical education and enhancing the training experience for residents.
