What I'm looking for

I seek a role that values creativity and allows for personal growth while making a positive impact on others.

I am a passionate creator and entrepreneur with over a decade of experience running my own business, Sleeping Cat Creations, where I craft unique homemade items such as vinyl decals, soap, and stained glass. My creativity extends beyond crafting; I also serve as an On Air Personality at Radio Free Fargo, where I engage listeners with music and relatable content.

In addition to my entrepreneurial endeavors, I have a strong background in patient care coordination at Essentia Health. My role involved scheduling appointments, assisting patients and staff, and managing medical charts with proficiency in EPIC software. I pride myself on my customer service skills and my ability to communicate effectively with diverse groups.
