Summary

I’m a passionate individual with over 16 years’ experience working in the Healthcare industry. I’ve gained a high level of experience working in many different sectors of healthcare, and I’ve worked for numerous Healthcare providers in multiple countries, giving me the unique ability to adapt to different working environments, learn and practice new patient care protocols and learn new skills. Having recently moved
to the USA I’ve already obtained my NYS license in Phlebotomy and successfully completed my ECG course. Passed my NCLEX last 2023. I plan to further my skill set by continuing my education and working as a healthcare provider in NYS. As a registered nurse in the Philippines my long-term goal is to obtain my nursing credentials here in NYS and practice nursing.
