What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters professional growth and values patient-centered care.

I am a highly motivated and prudent nurse with extensive experience in both acute and ambulatory care settings. My journey in nursing began with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, followed by a Doctor of Nursing Practice, specializing as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I have consistently maintained high academic standards, achieving a GPA of 4.0 in my doctoral studies and 3.9 in my undergraduate program.

Throughout my career, I have worked in various high-pressure environments, including the Heart and Vascular ICU and the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit. My role as a Post-Anesthesia Care Nurse at River Oaks Surgery Center has honed my skills in patient assessment and emergency management. I pride myself on my ability to collaborate effectively with surgical and nursing teams to optimize patient outcomes and ensure a smooth recovery process for my patients.

In addition to my clinical expertise, I have taken on leadership roles, coordinating clinical staff and managing quality improvement initiatives. I am passionate about patient education and strive to empower patients and their families with the knowledge they need for a successful recovery. I am eager to bring my skills and dedication to a respected organization where I can continue to make a positive impact on patient care.
