What I'm looking for

I'm looking to improve patient outcomes through bilingual communication, patient advocacy, healthcare coordination, clinical education, and collaborative community health initiatives.

I've supported patient care and medical communication as a Head Physician and Interpreter with the Bolivian Gymnastics Federation, coordinating treatment plans, follow-up, and medical teams during national and international tournaments.

At TIGO Telecel S.A. - Millicom, I conducted bilingual health consultations, remote teleconsultations, health screenings, and medical-leave follow-up for branches in Potosí, Tarija, Yacuiba, and Sucre. I also developed health education programs, workshops, and partnerships that expanded support for underserved communities.

I'm currently supervising clinical practice and simulation at Universidad Privada del Valle, where I create realistic patient scenarios, organize OSCEs, assess student performance, and train staff in simulation techniques.

I bring fluent English and native Spanish communication, patient advocacy, cultural awareness, and a practical commitment to equitable, well-coordinated healthcare.
