What I'm looking for

I seek a clinical role where I can apply hands-on nursing and surgical-assist skills, continue learning, support a collaborative team, and contribute to patient-centered care with opportunities for professional growth.

I am a licensed practical nurse and certified nursing assistant with multi-setting clinical experience across hospitals, outpatient surgical centers, and pharmacies. I have hands-on proficiency in patient assessment, phlebotomy, wound care, surgical assisting, and vital-sign monitoring, and I consistently maintain HIPAA, CLIA, and OSHA compliance to ensure safe, high-quality care.

My background includes supporting Mohs and plastic surgeons, performing medical assistant duties, and working as a pharmacy technician—giving me breadth in perioperative support, medical administration, insurance preauthorization and CPT/HCPCS coding. I document thoroughly in EHRs (Epic, Cerner, Medisoft) and have strong computer skills including Excel, Google Workspace and practice management tasks.

I am organized, detail-oriented and skilled at multitasking in fast-paced environments; I prioritize patient comfort, clear communication and efficient workflow to improve outcomes and satisfaction. I am eager to continue expanding clinical capabilities while contributing to a collaborative care team.
