What I'm looking for

I seek a patient-focused clinical role where I can apply hands-on nursing skills, collaborate with multidisciplinary teams, grow toward RN responsibilities, and contribute to efficient, compassionate care.

I am a licensed practical nurse with 13 years of experience delivering patient-centered care across hospital, primary care, and specialty wellness settings. I hold LPN and RN licensure, a BSN, and certifications including BLS; I excel at medication administration, IV management, wound care, triage, and coordinating care with multidisciplinary teams.

I bring strong communication, organization, and leadership skills demonstrated through precepting roles, recognition as a Patient Care Assistant Award recipient, and consistent responsibilities in admissions/discharges, vaccinations, telemetry monitoring, and procedure support. I am team-oriented, focused on safe, efficient care, and committed to contributing reliably in clinical environments.
