What I'm looking for

I seek a role that offers growth, challenges, and opportunities to enhance my clinical skills.

I am a passionate respiratory therapist with a strong commitment to providing exceptional patient care. With an Associate of Science and a Bachelor of Science in Respiratory Therapy from San Joaquin Valley College, I have developed a solid foundation in respiratory care and clinical skills. My experience spans various hospital settings, including emergency care, intensive care units, and neonatal management, where I have honed my ability to respond effectively to critical situations.

Throughout my career, I have worked at esteemed institutions such as Western Arizona Regional Medical Center and Temecula Valley Hospital, where I provided emergency care, monitored patients' physiological responses, and assisted in advanced procedures like bronchoscopy and pulmonary function testing. Currently, I am with One Legacy, where I consult with hospital staff on organ function and medical management, ensuring the highest standards of care for donors and recipients.
