I am very passionate about helping others and helping them have a better quality of life. I am very organized, caring, positive, and a hard worker. I have knowledge in all aspects of surgery, including setting up the operating room, preparing patients, and assisting the surgeon. I have great experience in total joint replacements, sports medicine, general surgery, and OB-GYN surgery. I am a committed person to the surgery team to maintain the highest standards of health and safety.
As a surgical technologist my responsibilities are to maintain high infection control standards. I also prepare the operating room with instruments and equipment for various surgical procedures, as well as ensuring a sufficient setup. I work well in high stress situations and maintain an efficient workflow with the surgeon. I also work very well with others. I believe in teamwork and helping others where help is needed. I am personable and like to establish a great relationship with coworkers to ensure a great work environment.
As a youth development worker I participated in creating opportunities for youth to engage in activities and other positive experiences outside of their immediate surroundings. A few examples of activities that I put together for the kids were dodgeball tournaments, basketball tournaments, flag football tournaments, as well as helping them with their homework and other academic needs. I believed it was very important to get the kids active and push them to be the best they could be as an athlete and as a student in the classroom.
