Summary

With over 25 years of experience as a certified medical assistant and phlebotomist, I have worked in various medical settings, including busy practices, national labs, hospitals, and a state prison. In addition, I have also dedicated time as a massage therapist. This extensive medical background has provided valuable insights into diverse needs across all age groups. In 2015, I transitioned into different industries and took on various roles, including managing a family business and serving as an executive assistant for a flooring manufacturing company. My greatest strength lies in my genuine love for people and ability to empathize with their needs. Moving forward, I am eager to bring this passion and empathy to my next professional endeavor.
