What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead community health outreach and education, bridge gaps for marginalized people, and deliver compassionate, data-informed support with reliable patient care and safety.

I’m a Community Health Worker focused on helping individuals and communities adopt healthy behaviors. I conduct outreach for medical personnel and health organizations to implement community programs, provide resources and social support, and advocate for health needs—while also handling services like first aid and blood pressure screening.

My background also includes patient and resident support across home health, senior living, and behavioral health settings, where I supported daily living needs, reinforced skills for independence, and performed medication/vital-sign related tasks as a Certified Medication Technician (CPR and First Aid). I bring a well-rounded, hands-on approach shaped by years of training, case support, and reliable team collaboration.
