Summary

I have a huge passion for working in the healthcare industry. I've obtained experience working with patients 18+ older, but geriatric is where my heart resides the most. I have management, home health, group home, and behavioral hospital experience as well. Definitely an organized and dependable candidate successful at managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude w/ a strong willingness to take on added responsibilities to meet team goals. Besides the experience that I already have, I am looking to find a position where I can step out of my comfort zone, because being diversified within the healthcare field is important for making a great leader!
