Summary
I am currently changing careers from special education to the medical field. I am drawn to the medical field as it allows me to continue to help others in a personal, hands-on way. I am highly motivated and with a background in teamwork, collaboration, and communication in-high stress team environments. I am skilled in creative problem solving, highly adaptable, and experienced in time management and organization. I value high quality care over everything and believe that everyone deserves compassionate service when not feeling their best.
