International medical graduate with extensive clinical research experience.
What I'm looking for
I am an international medical graduate with over six years of hands-on experience in clinical research and medical environments. My journey began with a Doctor of Medicine degree from Universidad San Carlos de Guatemala, where I developed a strong foundation in medical procedures and patient care. I have worked in various roles, including Clinical Research Coordinator, where I have honed my skills in IRB submissions, protocol development, and patient enrollment.
At Manassas Clinical Research Center, I have successfully managed the preparation of IRB applications and maintained compliance with regulatory standards. My ability to conduct thorough patient screenings and maintain high-quality data has been instrumental in the success of numerous clinical trials. I pride myself on my calm demeanor under pressure and my commitment to patient-oriented care, ensuring that every subject's health and safety are prioritized throughout the research process.
With a strong background in data management and regulatory compliance, I am eager to leverage my skills in a challenging new role that allows me to contribute to innovative medical research while continuing to grow professionally.
