Summary

Since my time in the U.S. Army, I have pursued a career in nursing. While completing my prerequisite courses for the nursing program I have worked at LVHN as a technical partner. I have gotten the opportunity to explore several departments. I have gained knowledge about the hospital itself and what patients experience in various settings while they are with us. My experience throughout my time at Lehigh Valley Health Network coupled with my education has given me the confidence to seek out new opportunities. A large aspect of being a registered nurse is being able to handle dynamic situations that can present themselves at inopportune moments. Nursing requires extreme flexibility and confronts you with new challenges every day. My nursing and military experience sets me apart and drives me forward into being the best I can be. I have no doubt that I can learn and excel at any position I am put in.
