Summary
A highly motivated, energetic Registered Nurse that has been working on a fast-paced, challenging medical-surgical unit in downtown Toronto after earning my degree in nursing at the end of 2020. Since beginning nursing through the brunt of COVID, I have acclimated to working in a demanding acute care environment where my nursing skills have, and continue to, evolve every day. I am looking to contribute these skills to a new environment to further develop myself as a nurse and provide excellent nursing care for clients.
