What I'm looking for

I seek a role that values accuracy and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a dedicated and detail-oriented medical transcriber with extensive experience in various specialties, including orthopedics, neurology, and urgent care. My journey began with a Bachelor of Arts in English and Communications, which laid the foundation for my strong command of medical terminology and transcription skills. Over the years, I have honed my abilities as an independent contractor, working with numerous agencies and healthcare providers to deliver accurate and timely transcriptions.

Throughout my career, I have utilized various medical software platforms, including Allscripts, Inscribe, and Powerscribe, to ensure high-quality outputs. My commitment to excellence is reflected in my ability to type at 70 WPM with remarkable accuracy. I take pride in my proofreading and editing skills, which I apply rigorously to every document I transcribe. I am also a certified AutoScript Editor, further enhancing my proficiency in the field.

In addition to my professional work, I actively volunteer at local animal shelters, demonstrating my commitment to community service. I am always eager to learn and adapt to new challenges, and I look forward to contributing my skills to a dynamic team that values precision and quality in medical transcription.
