What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a fast-paced, patient-focused clinic where I can support providers, manage front office flow, and deliver accurate, HIPAA-compliant care. I want to keep growing toward my goals in physician’s assistant work in pediatric oncology.

I’m a Medical Assistant/Front Office Representative currently at Family Practice Center, P.C., where I greet and check patients in and out, manage high-volume scheduling, and keep records accurate in EMR systems. I’m known for HIPAA-compliant, detail-focused work—verifying documentation completeness, maintaining confidentiality, and communicating professionally with patients, providers, and third parties.

Previously, as a Starbucks Shift Supervisor, I led daily store operations, coached and trained a team, resolved conflicts, and kept service strong during peak volume. That same sense of urgency and accountability carries into healthcare: I perform vital signs and intake, assist providers with exams and procedures, handle prior authorizations and prescription refills, and run point-of-care testing including EKGs and strep/flu/COVID testing.
