Summary

Compassionate nurse and patient advocate with over 18 years of experience in inpatient and outpatient settings. Extensive perioperative background in general surgery, plastics, urology, gynecology, obstetrics, oncology, orthopedics, podiatry, head and neck, ophthalmology, pediatrics, and vascular surgery. Skilled at multitasking, prioritizing patient needs, and leading interdisciplinary teams. Excellent communicator, dedicated to comprehensive, holistic, and evidence-based care. Will complete my Family Nurse Practitioner master’s degree in May 2026. Clinical rotations have primarily been in Family Medicine, including adult, pediatric, and OB patients, as well as Urgent Care, and I have performed procedures such as vaginal exams and Pap smears. I have also had rotations in the Minor Procedures clinic, where I assisted with and performed procedures such as cyst and lipoma removals, skin cancer excisions, cryotherapy, suturing, and wound care.
