What I'm looking for

I seek patient-centered RN roles in acute care, case management, or nurse education with collaborative teams, professional development, and opportunities for stable contracts or leadership growth.

I am a registered nurse with extensive experience across acute care, PCU, med-surg, ICU, travel nursing, and community-based case management. I have worked as a Nurse Navigator, case manager, house supervisor, and nursing instructor, coordinating care and delivering direct patient care across multiple settings.

I excel at care coordination, telehealth monitoring setup, IV infusions, chart auditing, and clinical instruction, and hold ACLS, BLS, and NIH credentials. I bring leadership, adaptability, and a patient-centered approach, seeking roles that leverage clinical expertise and teaching experience.
