What I'm looking for

I seek nursing roles where I deliver holistic, evidence-based care, engage in patient education, work collaboratively in clinical teams, and continue professional growth in hospital or community settings.

I am a compassionate, reliable medical-surgical nurse with over two years of clinical experience at a Level 6 hospital, trained across oncology, theatre, critical care, psychiatry, and general medical-surgical care.

I hold a Diploma in Kenya Registered Nursing (licensed) and BLS & ACLS provider certification from the American Heart Association, and I combine clinical competence with strong communication and patient education skills.

My experience includes locum nursing, clinical rotations at a referral hospital, health benefits verification, and roles in customer care and training that strengthened my administrative, documentation, and stakeholder-communication abilities.

I volunteer in community cancer awareness and youth mentorship programs, and I have been recognized with a Global Impact Nursing Scholarship and participation certificates from medical outreach initiatives.
