@georgiad
Compassionate healthcare professional dedicated to patient care and wellness.
What I'm looking for
As a dedicated healthcare professional, I have a strong foundation in patient care, complemented by my academic achievements at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where I earned a Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Health with a GPA of 3.88. My experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant at Greek American Rehabilitation and Care Center has allowed me to provide compassionate care to patients with neurological conditions, ensuring their comfort and dignity in a memory care unit.
In addition to my hands-on experience, I have served as a Teaching Assistant for General Chemistry, where I honed my skills in communication and mentorship by guiding students through complex concepts and fostering a supportive learning environment. My role as a Student Wellness Coach Intern has further enriched my ability to promote health and wellness, as I design personalized coaching frameworks that empower clients to achieve their health goals. I am passionate about making a positive impact in the lives of others through my work in healthcare.
