Summary
Compassionate and dependable nursing student with hands-on clinical experience in medical-surgical, telemetry, and critical care units. Adept at providing safe, patient-centered care while collaborating with interdisciplinary teams in fast-paced environments. I bring a strong work ethic, adaptability, and excellent communication skills developed through previous roles as a home care aide, custodian, customer host, and fitting room associate. As a home care aide, I supported clients with daily living activities, medication reminders, and emotional support while strengthening my commitment to caring for vulnerable populations with dignity and empathy. My background in service-oriented roles has enhanced my ability to multitask, stay organized, and maintain a calm and respectful presence under pressure. Recognized by clinical instructors for leadership potential and compassionate care, I am eager to contribute to a healthcare team that values quality, collaboration, and continuous learning while making a positive impact on the lives of patients and their families.
