Summary

I am a highly motivated and dedicated Respiratory Therapist with hands-on experience delivering exceptional care to our nation’s veterans across critical care, emergency, and general patient care settings. Through my clinical training and my role as a fee-basis Respiratory Therapist at VAPA, I have developed advanced proficiency in ventilator management, effective collaboration with the medical team, and providing compassionate bedside care. I take pride in my ability to work independently, remain detail-oriented under pressure, and support the mission of the VA by ensuring the highest quality of respiratory care. I am eager to continue serving our veterans as part of the VA team in a permanent capacity and to grow further in my professional practice.
