What I'm looking for

I seek a patient-focused role in a collaborative medical facility where I can expand clinical respiratory skills, contribute to multidisciplinary care, and grow professionally.

I am a respiratory therapist with complementary pharmacy technician experience and over seven years of combined healthcare and educational background. I hold an Associate of Science in Respiratory Therapy and an Associate of Science in Pharmacy Technician.

I have hands-on experience in ventilator management, arterial blood gas processing, pulmonary diagnostics, and a wide range of respiratory therapies across acute, critical, and pediatric settings. I have worked on Hamilton and Dräger ventilators, managed airway procedures, and provided rapid response and ICU support.

My pharmacy background includes institutional and outpatient pharmacy operations, inventory management, prescription processing, insurance claim resolution, and compounding support. I am a Certified Pharmacy Technician (CPHT) and trained in California pharmacy regulations.

I prioritize teamwork, clear communication, and patient safety, and I seek roles that allow me to expand clinical skills, contribute to multidisciplinary care, and continue professional growth within a supportive healthcare environment.
