What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated records assistant with extensive experience in data management within healthcare settings. My journey began at Population Service International, where I honed my skills in data entry and analysis, ensuring accuracy and consistency in reporting. I have since worked with various organizations, including Baylor Lesotho and the Elizabeth Glanser Pediatric Foundation, where I played a crucial role in tracking patient appointments and managing health records.
Throughout my career, I have demonstrated my ability to adapt and thrive under pressure, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic, where I ensured that vaccination records were meticulously maintained. My commitment to improving patient care through effective data management has been a driving force in my professional life. I am passionate about leveraging my skills to contribute positively to healthcare systems and improve patient outcomes.
