Summary

I am a United State Army Veteran who has been a Licensed Registered Nurse for 4 years. Within these 4 years I have become very skilled in communicating with staff and patients, and coordinating with multiple departments for continuity of care. I am also an organized and dependable candidate successful at managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude. Willingness to take on added responsibilities to meet team goals. All of which have enabled me to transfer to Emanuel Medical Center's Critical Care Unit within this past four years.
