Accomplishments
Prior to working in healthcare I started as a receptionist in the Dental field at SmileCare Family Dentistry. There, I checked patients in, answered phones and filed patient charts as well as data entry.
When I started my journey in healthcare I received my Administrators Certificate and became administrator for a Residential Care Facility (RCFE) . I decided after 6 years of working in RCFE that I would go to back to school at Santa Rosa Junior College to enroll in the CNA program. that's where I completed and received my CNA certification.
