What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to utilize my medical expertise in non-clinical settings, focusing on research, administration, or communications.

I am a dedicated medical professional with a Doctor of Medicine from Howard University College of Medicine. My experience as a Family Medicine resident has equipped me with a strong foundation in clinical care, documentation, and interdisciplinary collaboration. I have a proven ability to improve efficiency and streamline clinical workflows, which I demonstrated during my residency at Howard University Hospital.

Throughout my training, I delivered comprehensive inpatient and outpatient care, focusing on patient education and adherence to treatment plans. My role involved collaborating with healthcare teams to manage complex cases and ensure effective discharge planning. Although I concluded my residency early due to a medical diagnosis, I am eager to leverage my medical expertise in non-clinical healthcare roles, including research support, administration, or communications.
