Summary
Hard Working Nursing professional. Currently working to advance my career towards an MSN. Nearing 8 years of experience in my field I carry a diverse portfolio. I am PCU based and have worked in many different PCU settings, some of those being open heart, GI and level 1 trauma. I have spent my most recent years travel nursing and have enjoyed meeting new people an creating connections. I have loved the education that working in many different hospital settings has given me. This has driven me towards going after a masters in the science of nursing for education. I feel I am an asset with this experience. I have also held several staff positions in multiple hospital networks. I feel I have experience that allows me to provide the best quality and most efficient patient care. I am knowledgeable and I enjoy continued education. As a nurse you never stop learning. I work well with others and in team settings. I am quality focused and an efficient and driven leader. I have worked in leadership positions as charge both in staff nursing and travel positions. I am dependable with a positive attitude and great time management skills.
