What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to utilize my healthcare skills while contributing to community health initiatives and patient education.

I am a passionate medical professional with a Master's in Biomedical Sciences from the University of South Alabama, expected in July 2025. My journey began with a Bachelor's in Health Sciences from Samford University, where I developed a solid foundation in healthcare. I have honed my skills as a Medical Assistant at Christ Health Center, where I delivered exceptional patient care, focusing on health maintenance and education. My experience in a high-acuity cardiac ICU at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta further strengthened my ability to communicate effectively with caregivers and families, ensuring smooth operations and high patient satisfaction.

In addition to my clinical experience, I have a strong background in research, having contributed to a peer-reviewed publication on exercise performance. As a Lead Research Assistant in the Exercise Physiology Lab, I showcased my analytical skills and ability to lead a team. My commitment to community service is evident through my role as an English teacher for non-native speakers and my participation in medical mission trips to underserved communities. I believe in the importance of giving back and improving healthcare access for all.
