Summary
I am a dedicated nursing student currently completing my fourth semester while building on more than 10 years of leadership experience in the United States Army, where I served as a Platoon Sergeant responsible for leading and mentoring Soldiers in high pressure environments. My military background strengthened my ability to remain calm during stressful situations, think critically, communicate effectively, and lead with compassion and accountability. These experiences have transitioned naturally into my role as an Emergency Room nurse intern at Medical Center Hospital, where I continue to develop my clinical skills in a fast-paced setting while providing patient centered care. My passion for emergency nursing comes from a genuine desire to support patients and families during some of their most vulnerable moments while bringing both leadership and empathy into every patient interaction.
