What I'm looking for

Seeking a challenging role that leverages my medical writing and nursing expertise to drive business growth and improve healthcare outcomes.

As a seasoned medical writer and registered nurse, I bring a unique blend of clinical expertise and writing prowess to the table. With a strong passion for medical writing, medicine, and hair and scalp health, I excel in crafting scientifically accurate content that resonates with diverse audiences. My adaptability, creative skills, and ability to solve problems efficiently make me an asset to any organization.

Throughout my career, I have honed my skills in medical writing, literature review, and content development, with a focus on patient literature materials, medical protocols, and standard operating procedures. As a trichology tutor and hair transplant technician, I have developed a deep understanding of hair and scalp health, allowing me to provide expert guidance and support to clients.

With a strong background in nursing, I possess excellent communication and interpersonal skills, which enable me to effectively collaborate with healthcare professionals, manage staff, and provide exceptional client care. My experience in operations management has equipped me with the skills to lead teams, manage finances, and drive business growth.
