Summary

I’m a dedicated professional with a passion for creating a positive, cohesive environment where both patients and staff feel valued. I pride myself on my ability to connect with people quickly, building rapport and trust through strong communication and empathy. My emotional intelligence, honed through a diverse career path, allows me to understand and respond to the needs of those around me—whether it's a patient or a team member. I’m a natural leader who thrives when placed outside my comfort zone, and I believe that stepping up to challenges only makes me a better collaborator and problem solver. I’m a big believer in the idea that a happy, supported team is the backbone of great patient care, and I work hard to foster a work culture where everyone feels appreciated. I approach each day with a blend of professionalism, creativity, and a touch of humor—because a positive environment should also be an enjoyable one!
