What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a patient-centered, fast-paced clinic or hospital team where I can support providers with triage, vital signs, medical records, billing/coding accuracy, and HIPAA/OSHA compliance—while delivering dependable customer service.

I’m a patient-focused, compassionate Medical Assistant and Diagnostic Sonographer with 13 years of experience creating positive rapport with patients, families, and staff. I’m a reliable, highly dependable caregiver in fast-paced hospital and clinic environments, skilled at taking vital signs, triage, and delivering quality patient experiences.

Most recently, I work as a Medical Assistant at INOV8 Orthopedics-Katy, assisting physicians with minor surgery procedures, keeping rooms stocked and prepped, managing medical records (filing, organizing, scanning), and handling referral and medication requests. Previously at KSF Orthopedic Center P.A, I supported multiple orthopedic surgeons and physician assistants with patient vitals, injections, splints, wraps, cast care, wound care, and minor procedures—while maintaining billing accuracy through correct coding and ensuring compliance with HIPAA and OSHA.
