What I'm looking for
I am a proficient and dedicated professional with a proven track record in both healthcare and education. My experience as a Middle School Teacher allowed me to develop engaging lesson plans for a diverse group of students, significantly improving literacy rates by 25% through a targeted reading program. I thrive in collaborative environments, working closely with parents and staff to create individualized learning plans for students with special needs, ensuring every child receives the support they need to succeed.
Prior to my teaching role, I served as a Senior Care Manager, where I conducted comprehensive assessments and personalized health care plans for clients. My ability to coordinate with community health providers and manage a team of caregivers ensured high-quality care services. I also led a team as a Patient Access Supervisor in a large hospital, where I streamlined patient intake processes and improved patient satisfaction rates through effective leadership and data analysis. My commitment to service, empathy, and ethical responsibility drives my passion for making a positive impact in healthcare settings.
