What I'm looking for

I seek roles in clinical practice or medical education that prioritize evidence-based care, multidisciplinary teamwork, professional development, and positive patient outcomes.

I am a dedicated Registered Nurse with a First-Class Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Uganda Christian University and ongoing Postgraduate Diploma studies in Medical Education at Bishop Stuart University. I have hands-on experience across medical-surgical, pediatrics, neonatology, midwifery, reproductive health, and youth counseling, and I deliver patient-centered, evidence-based care in high-demand environments.

I excel in clinical assessment, medication administration, documentation, and multidisciplinary teamwork, with strengths in communication, critical thinking, cultural competence, and time management. I seek opportunities in international nursing, clinical practice, or medical education where I can apply my clinical skills and contribute to improved patient outcomes and training initiatives.
