What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to utilize my extensive nursing experience while continuing to grow in a supportive environment focused on patient-centered care.

I am a dedicated registered nurse with over 25 years of experience in various healthcare settings, including critical care, home health, and oncology. My journey began with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Texas, Tyler, where I developed a strong foundation in patient care. Throughout my career, I have collaborated with healthcare professionals to create individualized treatment plans, ensuring that each patient receives the highest quality of care.

In my roles as a supervising registered nurse, I have not only provided direct patient care but also led nursing teams, ensuring compliance with state and federal regulations. My experience in oncology infusion has allowed me to administer complex treatments while providing emotional support to patients and their families. I am passionate about patient education and strive to empower individuals with knowledge about their health and treatment options.
