What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative, team-oriented medical organization where I can practice urgent and emergency care, provide patient education, perform procedures, and grow in telehealth and pain-management roles.

I am a board-licensed Physician Assistant with over twenty years of clinical experience across urgent care, emergency medicine, and pain management. I graduated from the Charles R. Drew PA program and hold certifications in ACLS, BLS, and PALS.

My background includes work as a medical laboratory technician and hands-on roles performing histories and physicals, triage, minor surgical procedures, suturing, IV insertions, image interpretation, and administration of trigger and intra-articular injections. I have also managed pain consults, medication plans, and perioperative care.

I have delivered care in-person and virtually, conducting telehealth consultations, remote monitoring, and patient education. I routinely generate PR-2/work comp reports, perform well-child exams, and coordinate care with specialists and case managers.

I am team-oriented, outgoing, and focused on patient-centered care and community health outreach. I seek to join a collaborative medical organization where I can apply my clinical skills, teaching experience, and commitment to high-quality, coordinated care.
