Summary

In my three years of experience, I have found great love and dedication for nursing and the hard work it entails. Since graduating in 2021, I have mainly worked as a private duty nurse with children and elderly patients. While private duty nursing is an incredibly rewarding and wholesome career, I have always thrived while working with a team in a more high speed environment. I pride myself on being trustworthy, compassionate, helpful, and comforting for patients and their families.
