Passionate Biomedical Sciences student with healthcare experience and research skills.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated student pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Sciences at Colorado State University. My academic journey has equipped me with a strong foundation in various biological sciences, including genetics, biochemistry, and physiology. I have actively engaged in research, particularly in cardiovascular studies, where I learned to handle laboratory tools and record data meticulously. My commitment to understanding complex biological processes drives my passion for further studies in this field.
In addition to my academic pursuits, I have gained valuable experience as a caregiver, where I developed essential social skills and a compassionate approach to patient care. My certifications in CPR, BLS, AED, and First Aid, along with my phlebotomy training, demonstrate my readiness to contribute effectively in healthcare settings. I pride myself on being hardworking and genuinely kindhearted, qualities that I believe are crucial in building meaningful connections with patients and colleagues alike.
