Summary
I'm a Medical Laboratory Scientist (ASCP Board Eligible 2025) with a full year of hands-on experience gained through my MLS residency at Houston Methodist, where I rotated through various departments, including Microbiology, Hematology, Clinical Chemistry, Molecular Diagnostics, Blood Banking, and more. Certified in Phlebotomy, EKG, and Telemetry, I blend technical precision with genuine patient care. My background as a counselor taught me how to build trust quickly—whether I'm interacting with patients, families, or colleagues—and I thrive on staying organized, calm, and detail-focused even when the pace picks up.
