Cassandra Montoya

Compassionate and highly motivated nursing student with hands-on clinical experience in patient care, medication administration, and proficiency with IV insertion. I have spent the majority of my clinical hours in the ED and looking to further develop my career in that setting. As an adult in my 30’s, I bring maturity, adaptability, and strong communications skills developed through years of real-world experience. I am now excited and ready to apply these skills in a patient care setting.
