## About

```text
I am a dedicated nursing professional with three decades of hands-on patient care experience as a Licensed Practical Nurse and recent Registered Nurse credentials. My clinical background spans med-surg, orthopedic post-operative care, labor & delivery, NICU, gynecologic oncology support, and dental hygiene, where I consistently deliver patient-centered care and education.

At the University of Chicago I supported a gynecologic oncology service, coordinating genetic testing, insurance pre-authorizations and appeals, specimen and imaging retrieval, perioperative orders, triage, and research study enrollment—demonstrating strong clinical judgment, procedural assistance, and documentation skills in Epic and REDCap.

I seek to bring my clinical versatility, mentoring experience, and commitment to teamwork to a hospital environment that values quality care, professional development, and interdisciplinary collaboration.
