With over a decade of experience in healthcare, I am an empathetic and results-driven professional dedicated to supporting diverse patient populations. My journey has been marked by a commitment to patient engagement and advocacy, where I have honed my skills in care coordination, medical documentation, and effective communication. I thrive in high-volume environments, utilizing EMR systems to ensure accurate documentation while maintaining patient confidentiality and delivering exceptional care.

Throughout my career, I have worked in various clinical settings, including MedStar Medical Group and Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, where I have built trust-based relationships with patients and families. My ability to assess needs, prioritize care, and collaborate with clinical teams has been instrumental in improving patient outcomes. I am passionate about creating positive patient experiences and am eager to bring my strengths to a Patient Engagement Specialist role, where compassion, communication, and collaboration are essential.
