What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a people-focused role where I can provide personalized care or service, work collaboratively, and help people feel safe, seen, and well taken care of.

At Denver Health, I deliver individualized, safety-focused care in a high-acuity behavioral health environment, conducting patient observations, documenting findings, and collaborating on personalized care plans.

I've also supported patients at UCHealth and Eating Recovery Center through crisis intervention, therapeutic activities, accurate documentation, and consistent HIPAA compliance. I stay calm during rapidly changing, high-stakes situations and focus on helping each person feel safe, seen, and cared for.

My hospitality background, including service at Berkeley Park Sushi Co. and front-desk work at Hand & Stone, complements my culinary arts training and commitment to thoughtful, personalized service.
