Summary

Results-driven professional with extensive experience in supplier negotiation, data analysis, and strategic planning. Highly motivated, with a desire to take on hard challenges. Strong work ethic, adaptability, and exceptional interpersonal skills. I have demonstrated success in independent work and rapid skill acquisition.

My mother is a Nurse Practitioner, so naturally I have always had an interest in the medical field. For the last three years, I have continued my education at Pensacola State in medical terminology, pharmaceuticals, chemistry, biology, and human anatomy and physiology. Currently, I am in the process of moving from Pensacola, FL, to Atlanta by September 5, 2025. I am eager to pursue opportunities for growth and knowledge enhancement.
