What I'm looking for

I’m seeking a patient-centered medical assistant or clinical research role where I can use bilingual skills, phlebotomy, EMR/Epic experience, and grow into clinical coordination while supporting compassionate, efficient care.

I am a Certified Medical Assistant with hands-on experience in clinical settings and clinical research, combining medical assisting, phlebotomy, EMR/Epic use, and regulatory document handling. I have supported OB/GYN care, rooming patients, scheduling, and translating for Spanish-speaking patients.

I work reliably under pressure, create efficient clinic workflows, and build long-term patient relationships. I seek roles where I can apply bilingual patient care, administrative skills, and clinical research experience to improve patient outcomes and team efficiency.
