Summary
As a nursing student at Queen’s University and a firefighter pre-service candidate, I am passionate about patient care, emergency response, and community health. My hands-on experience in clinical settings, along with leadership roles in safety instruction and sponsorship coordination, has strengthened my ability to adapt, problem-solve, and support others in high-pressure environments. With certifications in BLS, first aid, and firefighter training, I am committed to developing my skills and making a meaningful impact in both healthcare and emergency services.
