What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to leverage my pediatric expertise while fostering a collaborative and supportive work environment.

I am a highly accomplished Pediatric Nurse Practitioner with a Doctor of Nursing Practice and a Master of Science in Nursing from the University of South Florida. With over 8 years of pediatric experience, I have honed my skills in various settings, including urgent care and specialized pediatric services. My commitment to excellence in nursing has been recognized through multiple awards, including the DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses and the Excellence in Nursing Award from Today’s Nurse.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated strong leadership and management abilities, particularly in my role as Charge Nurse in a Pediatric Hematology/Oncology/Bone Marrow Transplant Unit. I am passionate about providing high-quality care to children and their families, and I continuously seek opportunities to enhance my clinical skills and knowledge. As a member of several professional organizations, I actively contribute to the advancement of pediatric nursing and advocate for best practices in patient care.
