What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to utilize my nursing expertise while fostering student growth and development in a supportive environment.

I am a dedicated Registered Nurse with over 12 years of experience in acute care, patient advocacy, and education. My journey in nursing has been marked by a commitment to delivering high-quality care in fast-paced environments, where I have honed my skills in patient assessment, education, and interdisciplinary collaboration. I pride myself on my ability to build strong interpersonal relationships with both patients and colleagues, ensuring a supportive and effective healthcare environment.

Throughout my career, I have taken on various roles, including Health Science Teacher and Clinical Instructor, where I develop and implement lesson plans that cater to diverse learning styles. My experience as a Field Nurse Educator has allowed me to provide essential education and counseling to patients, while my time as a Registered Nurse in critical care has equipped me with the skills to manage complex patient needs effectively. I am passionate about fostering a positive learning environment for students and ensuring that they are well-prepared for their future careers in healthcare.
