What I'm looking for

I seek a progressive, humanitarian-focused role using emergency nursing and leadership skills to serve underprivileged communities and support professional growth.

I am a Registered Nurse and Registered Emergency Nurse with over 18 years of clinical, emergency and trauma care experience, nursing management, and electronic medical records practice. I have served in hospital emergency units and with the United Nations Mission in South Sudan, providing frontline emergency care, evacuation support, and public health collaboration.

I have led units as Ward Manager and Night Supervisor, preceptored and mentored students and new staff, and contributed to quality improvement and emergency unit design. My practice includes triage, resuscitation, ECG, IV cannulation, specimen collection and interpretation, medication administration, and management of unstable and trauma patients.

I am committed to serving underprivileged populations and to professional growth; I bring proven leadership in training, logistics, inventory management, and cross-disciplinary collaboration, and I seek roles where I can apply emergency nursing skills, humanitarian experience, and clinical leadership.
