Summary

I am a compassionate, self driven and dedicated EMT-Basic license holder(since 2023) and graduating Paramedic student with more than 700 hours of hands-on experience during clinicals and as a Paramedic Intern at Pearland Fire Department. I had proven my ability in advanced life support techniques and direct patient care, complemented by strong problem-solving skills obtained during field patient assessments and advance simulation at school. My goal in the future EM career is to successfully improved patient outcomes through effective collaboration with trauma and EMS teams and adept management of medical supplies during emergencies, as well as advancing through higher education to ultimately become an Emergency Room Physician.
