What I'm looking for

I am seeking patient-centered nursing roles in oncology or infusion where I can use my chemo/IV certifications, collaborate with interdisciplinary teams, and grow clinically while providing compassionate care.

I am a registered nurse with focused experience in outpatient oncology, IV therapy, and acute med/surg care, certified in chemo/biotherapy and BLS/ACLS. I currently provide chemotherapy administration, phlebotomy, vascular access maintenance, telephone triage, chart review, scheduling, education, and treatment planning in collaboration with oncology providers.

My clinical background includes per diem med/surg nursing with medication administration, comprehensive care planning, admission/discharge assessments, basic telemetry monitoring, and pediatric acute care. I have hands-on experience across infusion therapy, emergency room, perioperative, geriatric mental health, and addiction medicine from supervised clinical rotations.

I have been recognized for clinical excellence with three nominations for the Daisy Award for Extraordinary Nurses and bring reliable communication skills, interdisciplinary collaboration, and patient-centered bedside care to every role.
