Hi, I’m

EMILY SASSCER

Prince Frederick,MD
I cannot believe the purpose of life is to be happy. I think the purpose of life is to be useful, to be responsible, to be compassionate. It is, above all, to matter, to count, to stand for something, to have made some difference that you lived at all.
Leo Rosten

Summary

With strong problem-solving abilities, a willingness to learn, and excellent communication skills, I am well-prepared to make valuable contributions to team success and achieve positive results. Ready to take on new challenges and advance organizational objectives with dedication and enthusiasm.
