Summary
I am a highly motivated and committed nurse with a passion for critical care. I thrive in fast-paced, high-acuity environments and continuously seek opportunities to broaden my clinical skills and deepen my knowledge. I am now actively pursuing a nursing fellowship in an Intensive Care Unit setting where I can apply my education and prior experience, contribute meaningfully to patient outcomes, and continue to grow into a confident critical-care nurse.
