What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated and compassionate nurse with over ten years of experience in acute care settings. My journey in healthcare has been marked by a commitment to excellence in patient care and a passion for clinical research. I have honed my skills in conducting clinical trials, particularly in maternal/fetal and pediatric vaccines, while also managing trials across various specialties including cardiology and oncology.
Throughout my career, I have demonstrated strong leadership abilities as an Associate Site Manager, where I coordinate clinical trials, educate providers and participants, and ensure compliance with protocols. My experience includes supervising teams, conducting audits, and developing improvement initiatives to enhance study quality. I take pride in my ability to communicate effectively with both medical professionals and patients, ensuring that everyone involved is informed and comfortable with the processes.
With a solid foundation in nursing and a background in business analysis, I bring a unique perspective to clinical research. I am committed to continuous learning and professional development, and I strive to contribute positively to the healthcare community through my work.
