Summary
Current registered nurse with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree working in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) and looking for an opportunity to expand my knowledge in critical care, including the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Critical care experience in a pediatric ICU and clinical nursing experience in medical-surgical, labor and delivery, pediatrics, and NICU. Currently employed at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta Egleston Hospital where I have found a new meaning to the term “teamwork” and have been able to learn and practice many skills; including communication, time management, prioritization, critical decision making, and what can’t be taught, compassion. Strive to provide competent and holistic care to my patients and their families and am excited to continue learning and growing within my career.
