What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that values compassionate care and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a detail-oriented and highly adaptable Registered Nurse with over three years of progressive clinical experience in high-acuity environments, including ICU and PACU. My skills in rapid assessment, critical decision-making, and patient advocacy have been recognized in my roles, where I have consistently delivered high-quality, compassionate care in fast-paced settings.

At the Surgical Specialty Center of Minnesota, I provide post-anesthesia care for patients recovering from surgical procedures, ensuring their safety and comfort during recovery. My previous experience in the ICU at Mayo Clinic Health System allowed me to care for critically ill patients, where I honed my ability to interpret complex assessments and intervene quickly during acute changes. I am committed to fostering collaboration with interdisciplinary teams to enhance patient outcomes.

Additionally, my medical mission work in Honduras has enriched my nursing practice, allowing me to provide care in low-resource settings while adapting to cultural and language differences. This experience has deepened my understanding of global health issues and the importance of compassionate care.
