What I'm looking for

I seek a leadership or senior clinical nursing role in a collaborative, patient-centered organization where I can improve outcomes, mentor staff, and optimize processes.

I am a board-certified Registered Nurse with progressive clinical and leadership experience in emergency, medical-surgical, and trauma settings. I lead high-performance teams, manage clinical and operational workflows, and consistently improve patient outcomes through rapid assessment, evidence-based interventions, and staff education.

Fluent in English and Spanish, I have a strong track record in acute care, stroke and STEMI coordination, and care management analytics. I combine hands-on critical care skills with administrative abilities—hiring, performance management, scheduling, and process redesign—to create supportive, efficient units focused on safe, compassionate patient care.
