What I'm looking for

I seek a clinical role in emergency, urgent care, or hospital settings where I can apply acute care skills, EMR proficiency, and patient-centered communication while growing in clinical responsibility and teamwork.

I am a board-certified Physician Assistant with clinical experience in emergency medicine, urgent care, primary care, and inpatient rotations across multiple specialties. I have a Master of Science in Physician Assistant Studies and a strong record of hands-on patient care, EMR proficiency, and professional certifications including NCCPA, BLS, and ACLS.

I have worked as a PA in emergency and urgent care settings, contributed as a medical scribe, and volunteered extensively in community health and education programs. I’m patient-centered, multilingual (English, Twi/Akan, basic Spanish), and committed to improving clinical outcomes through evidence-based care and compassionate communication.
