What I'm looking for

I am looking for a supportive environment where I can grow and contribute to patient care.

I am a passionate and dedicated Medical Assistant with a diploma from Brightwood College. My training has equipped me with a solid foundation in patient care, medical procedures, and effective communication. I thrive in fast-paced environments and am committed to providing exceptional support to both patients and healthcare teams.

During my clinical experiences, I have developed a comprehensive understanding of medical care, including obtaining medical histories, interpreting diagnostic tests, and maintaining accurate patient records. My externship at Texas Digestive Disease Consultants and my role at Woman's Texas Health have honed my skills in medical billing, coding, and patient communication, ensuring that I can contribute effectively to any healthcare setting.

Furthermore, my experience at Southwest Children's Center has allowed me to engage with diverse patient populations, performing essential tasks such as newborn screenings and triage. I am eager to bring my skills and enthusiasm to a Medical Assistant position where I can make a positive impact on patient care and organizational efficiency.
