What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to teach, mentor, and improve patient care in a collaborative environment.

I am a highly motivated and goal-oriented registered nurse with 23 years of progressive clinical experience. My journey in nursing has equipped me with a diverse skill set, ranging from family health nursing to oncology and procedural nursing. I thrive in environments where I can teach and coordinate care, ensuring that patients receive the highest standards of nursing excellence.

Throughout my career, I have held various roles, including Disease Management Nurse Specialist, where I provided comprehensive services to military members and their families. My experience includes triaging patients, educating them on chronic disease management, and mentoring new nurses. I am passionate about improving patient satisfaction and outcomes through effective communication and education.

As a lifelong learner, I actively participate in continuing education programs to stay updated with the latest nursing practices. I am committed to fostering a supportive environment for both patients and colleagues, ensuring that everyone receives the care and guidance they need to thrive.
