What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic healthcare facility that values compassionate care and offers opportunities for professional growth.

As a Registered Nurse with extensive experience in neonatal and postpartum care, I am passionate about providing high-quality, patient-centered care. My journey in nursing began with a B.S. in Nursing from Texas A&M University, and since then, I have honed my skills in various high-acuity settings, including level II and III NICUs. My role as a Travel Nurse at Aya Health allowed me to care for newborns in critical conditions, where I effectively monitored vital signs, administered medications, and collaborated with multidisciplinary teams to create individualized care plans.

Throughout my career, I have been recognized for my ability to educate and advocate for patients and their families. At Memorial Hermann, I implemented couplet care, ensuring comprehensive support for mothers and infants, and I was honored with a Daisy Nomination for my dedication to nursing excellence. My experience also includes providing care for adult patients in Medsurg/Tele settings, where I focused on thorough assessments and empowering patients through education about their health conditions.
