What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role where I can continue to provide compassionate care, collaborate with a dedicated team, and grow professionally in a supportive environment.

I am a dedicated and patient-oriented registered nurse with four years of clinical experience, specializing in pediatrics and labor and delivery. My journey in nursing has been marked by a commitment to providing compassionate care and collaborating effectively with healthcare teams to ensure the best outcomes for patients. I have been recognized for my leadership and dedication, receiving multiple DAISY nominations and the Labor and Delivery Leadership Award at Ascension Saint Thomas.

In my current role as a Pediatric Nurse at Children’s Clinic East, I prepare patient charts, conduct vision and hearing screenings, and provide essential care to children from newborns to 18 years old. My previous experience in labor and delivery has equipped me with the skills to support women through the labor process, manage pain relief, and provide postpartum care. I thrive in fast-paced environments and am adept at responding to emergencies, ensuring both mother and baby receive the highest quality of care.
