What I'm looking for

I'm seeking an entry-level role in sterile processing or lab support where I can apply specimen handling and data-entry skills, learn sterile techniques, and grow in a collaborative clinical environment.

I am an aspiring sterile processing professional with hands-on experience in specimen handling and a diverse background in childcare, program support, and small-business operations.

At QuestDiagnostics I performed data entry of test orders and prepared laboratory specimens for various analysis and testing, and was responsible for identifying and troubleshooting problems with specimen types such as missing or inaccurate information.

I have supervised children as an Assistant Daycare Provider and Camp Counselor, taught preschool skills, planned art and activity sessions, and communicated daily with parents to relay messages and progress.

I also managed social media and designed flyers at D2w.Prints, worked on office duties and data projects with Elev8 Baltimore/YouthWorks, and operate small businesses (CakedbyMari and M.A.D. Wicks & Co.), demonstrating initiative in event coordination, design, and entrepreneurship. A Day in Medical School John Hopkins -Valedictorian 2016
