What I'm looking for

I am seeking a patient-focused role leveraging my clinical, case management, and education experience where I can lead care coordination, mentor staff, and improve outcomes in a collaborative, growth-oriented organization.

I am a compassionate, detail-oriented BSN-prepared registered nurse with over 20 years of clinical experience across acute, critical care, case management, and home health settings.

I have overseen neonatal intensive care (Level III) patients, managed complex pediatric home health caseloads, and provided telephonic case management to support members through challenging health journeys.

My strengths include care coordination, development and evaluation of nursing care plans, staff education and onboarding, and utilization review/HEDIS processes; I consistently apply strong critical thinking and motivational interviewing to improve patient outcomes.

I seek to leverage my clinical expertise, leadership in case management, and proven teaching abilities to improve care delivery and support diverse communities in a new healthcare role.
