What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to lead teams, enhance patient care, and foster a collaborative environment.

I am a dedicated registered nurse with extensive experience in various nursing roles, focusing on patient care, staff education, and leadership. My journey in nursing began with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, followed by a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, where I was honored on the President’s List for Academic Accomplishments. I have consistently sought to enhance my skills and knowledge, culminating in my current role as a Senior Nurse Manager for Inpatient Behavioral Health.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a commitment to high-quality nursing care and exceptional customer service. I have held multiple managerial positions, including Nurse Manager for Inpatient Medical Rehabilitation and Nurse Manager for a Neuro/Pediatric Medical-Surgical Unit. My leadership philosophy centers on collaboration and advocacy, ensuring that both patients and staff receive the support they need to thrive. I am also proud to be a Quality Academy Graduate and an Aspiring Leader Graduate, which has further equipped me with the skills to inspire and lead effectively.
