Summary

My varied history in pharmacy assistance, customer service, and volunteer work at LifeLabs equips me with a special set of abilities and knowledge for the position of medical laboratory assistant. Working at Walmart as a cashier and customer service agent helped me to develop my strong communication skills, multitask under stress, and accuracy. My work as a pharmacy assistant broadened my knowledge of healthcare settings and taught me how to manage private data, keep accurate records, and put patient privacy first. I developed these abilities even further at LifeLabs where I helped with data input, specimen management, and lab operations. Together, these roles have equipped me with a strong foundation in patient care, attention to detail, and a proactive work ethic, all of which I am eager to apply to support laboratory teams in delivering high-quality patient care.
