What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters collaboration, supports professional growth, and allows me to make a meaningful impact on patient care.

I am an experienced Acute Care Nurse Practitioner with a strong background in providing high-quality patient care. With nine years of experience in large hospital environments, I have developed a service-oriented approach that emphasizes organization and proactivity. My proficiency in conducting comprehensive patient assessments, both via telehealth and in-person, allows me to effectively promote preventative care and assess health risks.

Throughout my career, I have managed life support equipment and performed critical assessments in high-pressure environments, such as the Cardiac ICU and during complex cardiology procedures. My role as a leader in interdisciplinary teams has honed my skills in patient discharge planning and communication with healthcare providers, ensuring optimal treatment plans and patient advocacy. I am committed to continuous learning and professional development, as evidenced by my active participation in mentorship and professional organizations.
